(...) I've used some of the LabView features, though it seems like they work best when used on constants, rather than variables or containers. My impression, though, is that the non-Robolab-specific LabView features aren't what I'm looking for (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) Robolab can access LASM code (Lego Assembler) which may allow you to write instructions that fit your needs. The LASM documentation is part of the Mindstorms 2.0 SDK available from (URL) not an assembler programmer so I have no idea if this (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hey, Rob, that's what I was doing last night as well.. but I was installing the w2kpro as my virtual machine (VMWare). However, I ran into some system problem and I have to do this again today. If it works with the w2kpro on your toshiba satellite (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Having investigated rotations sensors thoroughly, I conclude they have some serious design flaws. Most notably, some samples taken during voltage transitions can be impossible to differentiate from samples at entirely different rotational positions. (...)
