  Re: Motor Control Register (0xf000)
 
(...) This is interesting. It makes sense that the memory backing these locations still works, but I never would have thought to try to use it. I will make a note of this on my pages. -Kekoa (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Motor Control Register (0xf000)
 
(...) Interesting, I never looked at that version. I think the one disassembled by Kekoa is 0309. Current versions of leJOS also use this upper memory to store part of its firmware (almost 3K). Jürgen (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Motor Control Register (0xf000)
 
Joe, [some reordering of comments for clarity] (...) The idea is to pick a certain number of functions that will fit in the upper RAM space (~2900 bytes) and put these functions in a seperate linker section (other than the default ".text" section).

  Re: Motor Control Register (0xf000)
 
Mark, This is very interesting. I have experienced strange motor behavior with programs on BrickOS before; I now wonder if this may have been the situation. I do not currently know enough about GCC to make the changes that you mentioned, but I am (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Motor Control Register (0xf000)
 
Seeing as how there's been little traffic here recently, I thought I'd post about something I found that's cleared up a little mystery (for me at least). It concerns the RCX register that is used to control the motors. This register lives at 0xf000. (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: download speed
 
(...) Daniel, Much more than the 600 byte class gets downloaded. If you do lejos myclass -o myclass.bin, and look at the size of myclass.bin, you will see the true size of the download. If you have a serial rather than usb tower, then you can use (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  download speed
 
hi first, i would like to congratulate the Lejos team. When i bought Mindstorms, didn't imagine i was going to use it with my favorite programming language! I noticed that Lejos (2.0.0) is very slow to download programs or firmware to the rcx, (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

  Re: Release candidate brickos-0.2.6.08 avail for testing
 
After making this change everything worked perfectly, as far as I can tell. I had a lot of trouble trying to build the gcc cross compiler. With this build and the pre-build cross compiler from hitachi's website everything was very easy. Thanks! (...) (22 years ago, 5-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: RIS 1.0 -> 1.5 -> 2.0 upgrade questions
 
(...) To be precise, there is one additional part, it's an additional long clear thick optical fiber. I think it's intended to connect some VLL bricks to the USB tower. The Spybotics contain similar but shorter optical fibers. I also read that the (...) (22 years ago, 5-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  RIS 1.0 -> 1.5 -> 2.0 upgrade questions
 
I have a Mindstorms 1.0 set. When the 1.5 upgrade came out, I purchased it. I see that the 2.0 upgrade is out. A couple of quick questions: (1) Is the upgrade just a CD-ROM, or are there any pieces, users' guide, or Constructopedia like there was in (...) (22 years ago, 5-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
