  Re: The BrickOS Task Manager
 
in version 2.6.1 (I've just download it) extern tid_t execi(int (*code_start) (int, char **), int argc, char **argv, priority_t priority, size_t stack_size); declare in unistd.h ! So use the tid_t and not the pid_t ! (like say ROSCO) Does anyone (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: RCX low battery indicator problem
 
(...) Try to put the firmware 2.0 into it ... You can download with the SDK2 (URL) in the 1.0 programmation should work into the 2.0 firmware. Or try to get the 2.0 CD Cause it's really better for programmation (more option are include) nanobapt (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Does RIS2.0 set use the fiber optics cable?
 
Hi, I'm putting together the parts for my RIS2.0 set in order to sell the set, but I can't find the fiber optics cable... I might have thrown it away by accident.... Anyway, I've looked on the CD and in the instructions and I can't seem to find the (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) SNIP (...) Any concrete examples of why this code sequence works and that one doesn't would be very helpful and provide a base for new or less experienced students and teachers to build on. The examples need not deal with obscure commands (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, FTX)
 
  Re: New Robolab user saying hello!
 
(...) I use Win98 and for the Lego camera, all you need is Robolab. Don't know about XP. See Tufts CEEO for lots of image processing material including examples that use G-Code and LABVIEW-like structures that you will easily understand (and I will (...)

  Re: The BrickOS Task Manager
 
(...) [snip] (...) Hi Mike, What version of BrickOS are you using? IIRC the correct type for thread IDs in the current version is tid_t, not pid_t. Also, I dunno if it was a typo, but you should include tm.h, not tm.c. HTH ROSCO (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: The BrickOS Task Manager
 
(...) Hmm... it doesn't seem to recognize pid_t as a valid type. I have a document of the functions in brickOS that indicates execi returning an int. Which is it? (...) Still confused... I'll post the poignant code: pid_t rowthread; pid_t colthread; (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RCX low battery indicator problem
 
This is my first venture into lugnet.robotics, so excuse me if this has been asked and answered before. I've bought an RIS 1.5 form EBay for my son for Cristmas. The RCX received seems to have a problem with the low battery indicator - it comes on (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Happy new year!!!
 
(...) RCX 1.0 (the default target for NQC) doesn't support variable frequencies. If you instruct NQC to generate code for RCX 2.0 (using the -Trcx2 option on the command line) then it should stop complaining. Of course, in order for the program to (...)

  Re: Lightsensor
 
(...) Keep in mind a "dynamics range" of 10 units is just fine, if the variation is normally only a couple units. In other words, you can reliably determine when you are seeing a light or dark surface. Making sure that the sensor is close (5 mm or (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Events in robolab
 
We can use my site to host a knowledge base for Robolab. I would be happy to help out. I was thinking of doing something similar for the students and teachers I teach anyway. My goal is to make up for some of documentation shortcomings with useful (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, FTX)
 
  New Robolab user saying hello!
 
Hello, I have recently purchased Robolab to use with my Mindstorms set. I am an electronics test development engineer for satellite payloads and write programs in Labview for the test systems. So I was interested in Robolab as soon as I found out (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: Robolab and 3rd party camera
 
Well, I have Robolab 2.5.2 and a Dexxa webcam (Logitech Quickcam clone), and that works fine on Windows XP. I originally had problems getting the camera to work with my MOTHERBOARD as it has a VIA chipset and the USB drivers needed updating, but (...)

hi All, a happy new year to everyone ! My new year started with a broken motor, due to a fall on the ground :-( After cutting it totally open, I've managed to get it running again.

  Re: Lightsensor
 
(...) Hi Thomas facing the same problem since very few days (I'm also a nebie) it seems that this behaviour is 'normal'. However this is not satisfying at all because the sensors dynamic range is to low for reasonable applications. Is there someone (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Happy new year!!!
 
(...) thanks, at the same from me, (...) Maybe a stupid question, (haven't used NQC for a while), but can anyone tell me, why is my NQC compiler complaining that freq should be a constant ? thanks, Stef Mientki (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  The BrickOS Task Manager
 
Hi everyone, I was wondering if there's any documentation or example programs detailing how to use the task manager in BrickOS. The only example I have is the line-follow program that somehow uses tasks to 'wake up' when it detects a colour change. (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
