  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
(...) [snip] (...) Mark, Thanks for shooting this so quickly. Kevin (21 years ago, 27-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
(...) As we discussed in email, it appears to be the firmware downloader causing the problem. I just tried downloading BrickOS 0.2.6.10 with both NQC 2.5 a1 and BricxCC 3.3.6.2 and experienced growling motors. I then downloaded BrickOS using firmdl3 (...)

  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
(...) Me too. Without any program loaded, it seems to do funny things with the motors. But once I get a program downloaded, it works fine. The only thing that I find freaky is the different values for light sensors. There's hex percentages and dec (...) (21 years ago, 27-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, FTX)
 
  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
(...) Rob, I've had the same problem with BrickOS. The installation I used came with BrickOS already built. I reloaded the RCX with LEGO firmware and all three motor ports worked fine. I concluded it was a BrickOS problem that I would wrestle with (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: IR Sensitivity - Was: 1.5/2.0 infrared problem
 
(...) Mine have been apart more often than I'd like, too! :-) (...) My guess would be mostly for increased communication speed. With the higher baud rate, the duration of the 2-byte Spybot/Manas packets is halved. This allows for fewer collisions (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
(...) That is the part that really bites me. Are you able to reproduce the error? If yes, try to put out the batteries for a longer time. Anyway, it seems worthwile to have a look at the brickOS initialization code for the motors. If you can (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  LDCC.java
 
I've developed an LDCC protocol stack for lejOS. Well, 1/4 of it. It's currently receive-only and only on the RCX platform. It needs another pair of eyes to make sure I haven't done anything stupid or inefficient, as this is only my second Java (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: BrickOS motor port horrors
 
Well, I don't know much about it being possessed, but you should try to divide the problem probabilities in half. Try loading the original lego firmware. (Yes I know, this brings horror to some of you fellow programmers out there, but its just (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  BrickOS motor port horrors
 
I was writing some simple programs to test out BrickOS last night, and had some really strange behavior. I hooked up a motor to port B and a rotation sensor to port 2. My programs were just testing out various motor speeds and positioning accuracy. (...) (21 years ago, 25-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: IR Sensitivity - Was: 1.5/2.0 infrared problem
 
(...) Hello Mark, Thanks for your answer, this will keep me from dismantling once again my RCXs ! So it seems that LEGO modified RCX2.0 to get better compatibility with Spybots/Manas. Now a question remains, why did they increased carrier frequency (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: IR Sensitivity - Was: 1.5/2.0 infrared problem
 
(...) OK thanks for your reply! But the bad thing is that two RCX2.0 could not communicate properly....Am I wrong?? Chris. (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  IR Sensitivity - Was: 1.5/2.0 infrared problem
 
(...) I think there might be an explanation for this and I've been meaning to post on this topic, but never seem to have gotten around to it! :-) I've opened up my RCX 1.0 and the IR receiver has the markings "TSOP 1138" on it. After looking this (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: 1.5/2.0 infrared problem
 
(...) we ' ve told about this thing with Philo few days ago cause he had the same problem. So I' ve made several tests with 4 RCX: 2 RCXv1.0 and 2 RCXv2.0 . It seems RCX emitter is the same in 1.0 and 2.0 versions. But 2.0 receiver is less sensitive (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  lnpd+liblnp + brickos-0.2.6.10
 
It seems to be not possible to use lnpd+liblnp with brickos-0.2.6.10. Is there a patch available to get the liblnp package to work? (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  size limit on the programs for the RCX
 
is there a size limit for our program? Like it cannot exceed a certain amount... by that i mean, if i have say several programs, is there a limit on how much each could size so that i can fit them all on the RCX at once and be able to run? because (...)

  Re: Another firmware replacement for RCX

Hi all, just a reply to myself :-) we just released a new version of ERIKA, that includes: - C++ support - a new motor library (with a PWM able to reach 1 KHz!!!) - infrared support (experimental) - a few bug fixes The documentation have also (...)

Thank you for the quick response. I'll try all your suggestions tonight. ...and a great big SQUEEK! SQUEEK! SQUEEK! Joseph (21 years ago, 21-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: FindWorld & ClearWorld Spybot NQC API additions
 
(...) You are quite welcome. I hope there are at least a few folks out there who are finding this useful. Mostly we should all thank Dave Baum for his efforts to add Spybot support to NQC and for designing a program that allows for extension in a (...)
