  Re: Sensor Sampling; Progress?
 
Joe, Great job on taking the bull by the horns! The following are my suggestions on a system configuration. Please note that the term "divider" is being used here to indicate the function should only be performed every Nth interrupt. OCRA interrupt (...)

  Sensor Sampling; Progress?
 
So far, I have reconfigured a copy of BrickOS in the following way: 1) Adjusted the clock_handler to improve the accuracy of the sys_time variable. Now running at very close (if not right on) 1 msec per tick. 2) Allowed the FRC (Free-Running (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: fast download with Serial-Tower is no faster
 
(...) Frederic, lejosrun does not support 4x download. It has a -f or --fast flag but the "use_fast" variable that this sets is not used. lejosfirmdl does support 4x download with serial towers. It does this by first downloading a fast firmware (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  fast download with Serial-Tower is no faster
 
Just got my second RIS, a 1.5 with Serial-Tower this time. I did not installed any other software than the previous I had (Win98, JDK1.3, Lejos 2.0, USB Drivers for Lego-Tower). I have just set RCXTTY=COM1. Problem: when doing a "lejosrun -f (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: DISTRIBUTED/PARALLEL CLUSTER for legOS through n*RCX
 
Nick, What you propose it's another way, and of course, should work, but we might have to create another software layer over the current operating system of the RCX (of course, legOS), and we would loose 1 sensor per RCX. What I was trying to (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: IR Proximity Detection Problem
 
(...) A friend of mine attempted this setup a while back and came to the conclusion that he basically needed to be nearly perfectly perpendicular to the object he was trying to detect. So he decided this was way to precise/finicky for his general (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: BricxCC 3.3.7.1
 
(...) Sure. I've made that change now but I will wait for a few more updates before I put out a new release. Thanks, John Hansen (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: IR Proximity Detection Problem
 
Dean, Philo, Thank you both very much: Including the sensor monitoring in a "repeat"-loop brouhgt the solution. Works quite perfect. I guess "SendMessage" is somewhat slow, i. e. the IR-emission/reflection. Now I am going to even improve the (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: BricxCC 3.3.7.1
 
(...) grab this update, but just in case it's not in this one, can you add to your list to add to the next release the file suffix .nqh to NQC files? Thanks again! (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  spyutils.nqh
 
I have attached to the end of this message the spyutils.nqh file I've been compiling. It's not got a lot in there yet, just the routines defined as "utility" in the Lego Spybotics ROM SDK plus the SendRCXMessage. I'm aiming toward this file being (...)
