  Re: Cross-machine cross-compiling
 
I have tried posting about the pre-built tools for Win32-cygwin before, however, I think the person I was talking to was too frustrated by then to try it. If you head over to the hitachi web site, they have a link for third party compilers. They (...) (22 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  MacNQC Beta Release 3.0a6
 
Hi All, I've uploaded MacNQC 3.0a6. New features are: * Tooltips for the Toolbar. Bugs fixed: * Disabled the Fast Firmware checkbox when the USB tower is selected as the output device. * Fixed a crash if while compiling a one line error message is (...)

  Re: How to setup gcc and make in cygwin
 
I, too, have been at it for three weeks. gcc and bintools build OK under cygwin, but when it gets to the cross-compiler, the whole make process craps out. The compile fails because some of the cross-compiler sources are (complaining about) missing (...) (22 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Cross-machine cross-compiling
 
No matter how hard I try - or how many different "this is how to do legOS under Win32" web sites I visit - I cannot get legOS and its associated cross-compiler to build. The stuff from brickOS dies during the make process because of "missing" (...) (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  a suggestion for BrickOS
 
Who would I contact about creating a library of math functions? (sqrt, sin, cos, tan, invsin, invcos, invtan, and ect.) Would they be able to add the library to the standard files in the BrickOS project? Timothy (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Some UI questions about Robolab
 
Hi All, I have a couple of quick questions. 1. The help in Robolab says I can select a program from the programs list and press F10 to delete it. Every time I do this I get a message saying that the folder is locked. I've tried everything I can (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Re: Use built-in Ir instead of IR-Tower?
 
(...) The IR protocol is slightly different. While IRDA only sends short pulses the Lego Tower sends a signal for the whole time slot. It is very unlikely that one can get them work together. Jochen (22 years ago, 30-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  How to find maximum available memory for datalog, power consumption and sensor wire length?
 
Hi there, I'm preparing to write a log program to store temperature values in the datalog. After some experimenting and familiarizing with the datalog associated functions I've found the following: Using CreateDatalog(x) with x being a constant and (...)

  Use built-in Ir instead of IR-Tower?
 
Hi! i have a sub-notebook without any com-ports so i can't use my IR-Tower. But the built in IR is reachable over com5 (btw: i'm working with cygwin). so i changed dll to com5 (export...) but now i get the error(when dll'ing): Error 21: sending (...)

  Re: some more questions about lnp.
 
The frequency of the RCX's IR does not change at all: " The RCX uses a 38kHz carrier, which is pretty typical for TV remotes. As for the sampling rate, the RCX runs at 2400 bps, which makes each bit approx 417us " (URL) think the only way you could (...) (22 years ago, 28-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: some more questions about lnp.
 
duh... guess i was kinda wrong here.. IR is in reality a frequency defined from A to B. any messages sent within this spectre is said to be IR messages. so in theory sending an IR message closer to A than B from one RCX. and at the same time sending (...)

  Re: Watch Dog Timer on the H8 - Working!
 
Well, after browsing through the H8 reference another, oh 20 (?), times; and some messing around; it is now working. Basically, I had declared the Control Status Register as an 8 bit value. Since this is a special register (8 bit) that requires a 16 (...) (22 years ago, 28-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Watch Dog Timer on the H8
 
Has anyone been able to make use of the Watch Dog Timer on the RCX? The H8 documentation seems to spell out the workings quite well.

  Re: Automatic RCX Battery Recharging
 
Yes, the object is to have the RCX robot monitor its own battery charge (something available to the RCX firmware, and lejos, etc..) and then when it is consistently low to drive up to some sort of home made charging station and get a boost.
