  Re: What is "Stop Event Monitoring" for?
 
Don't know specifically about Robolab, but usage might be. "I want to monitor a bump sensor for the next 100 milliseconds for an event; if the event doesn't happen in this time, then stop monitoring for the event." One way to program this is define (...)

  Re: Maximum Subroutine numbers?
 
I don't use Robolab, but I can offer some insight into how the RCX firwmare operates with subroutines (and events) that may partially explain your problems. RCX firmware supports 8 (eight) subroutines per slot. Internally they are numbers 0 to 7. (...) (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Is there a bug database?
 
Is there a bug database for Robolab? Unless it's the first perfect program ever written, there have to be bugs. Is there a procedure in place to report suspected bugs? Are they being cataloged, hopefully in a searchable database? (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Events in Robolab
 
After dozens of hours of experimentation, it is my conclusion that event-driven programming in Robolab is unreliable. Eventually, the RCX stops responding to events. This does not always happen at the same point in a given program, nor is it (...) (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Re: installing Robolab under Mac OS X
 
Hi Holger, I definitely know that Robolab 2.5.2 is running in classic mode of MacOS X 10.2.8. So it must be something with the file owner and user rights for a file or a folder in your system (and in every other system where the software should be (...)

  installing Robolab under Mac OS X
 
Hello, I just purchased Robolab 2.5.2 from Pitsco and am trying to install it under Mac OS 10.2. When I try the process (while logged in under an account with administrator priviledge) the installer gets to 2 or so files remaining, and then gives (...)

  Re: Maximum Subroutine numbers?
 
Following up my own post with more information: I found in the Minnesota FIRST League's Software Training Manual the statement: "Local subroutines are identified and called by number (1-8)." This suggests that unlike containers and most other (...) (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Maximum Subroutine numbers?
 
Does RoboLab have a maximum subroutine number? Also, what is the maximum number of subroutines which can be defined? Referring to real subroutines, not SubVIs. I have a program which defines 5 subroutines, numbered zero through 4. It seems like when (...) (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  What is "Stop Event Monitoring" for?
 
The Robolab manual says "This command stops the program from watching for events" and gives an example which is essentially identical to the example for the "Start Monitoring for an Event" icon except it adds a "Stop Event Monitoring" icon after the (...)

  What is "Reset Event" for?
 
What exactly does the Robolab "Reset Event" icon do? Under what circumstances would or should it be used? The Robolab manual gives only a Microsoft-esque useless restatement of the name of the icon: "Event This command resets monitoring for an (...)

  Re: Lightsensor
 
If I shine a bright light into the light sensor it gets to 60 sometimes, but if I put the light sensor very close to a lamp, it gets to 100. I could never get a value lower than 25. "Michael Gasperi" <gasperi@alynk.com> wrote in the message (...) (21 years ago, 25-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
