  Re: train control
 
(...) hi Juergen I tried it with load, and it works much better! Only that the speed is not very stable in the curves. (...) If i use a cycle of 10ms, then i could only use 10 different speeds, because the Thread.sleep has a resolution of 1ms... (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
(...) Hi Joe, Thank you for your fast reply, you are right, alle the 4 RCXs can see the tower, but I dont think thats the problem, since the problem also is present when only one RCX is turned on, or the other 3 are removed from the place. I only (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
 
  Re: Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
From the picture (d1_p31) it looks as though all 4 RCXs can see the tower. I don't know anything about pcrcxcomm.jar or rcxf7port; and not much about lejos, however, if all 4 RCXs try to respond to the tower, you will have collisions. Try covering (...)

  Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
Hi everyone, Im working on a project with controlling a large Container Crane by 4 RCXs. I have implementet some controlling and a lot of functions in the model, including a userinterface made in Java for a laptop. The crane is controlled by a (...)

  brickOS v1?
 
Hi, I'd like to know if the v1 of brickOS with the support of the usb tower for linux (without patch) is going to come soon or not. Actually I have tried many things but without success. Thank's Nil (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: train control
 
Hi Daniel, (...) sorry to reply so late, I wanted to try it myself but didn't get around to do it yet (I'm starting an IT-Business as a consultant/systems programmer, see (URL) managed to run a train from an RCX with the standard power levels using (...)

  Re: NQC problem...driving me insane!
 
(...) You should check to make sure your light sensor is in fact changing more than 5 counts. Start by changing the above code to 2 or 3. I don't recall with NQC, but with some languages (BrickOS) the values are backwards, so you may need to check (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: NQC problem...driving me insane!
 
(...) Well, actually, that code works fine (running MacNQC, a fairly recent version, with 2.0 firmware). One thing to check, code-wise, is to display SENSOR_1 on the LCD, and see what the numbers are (is it set to raw mode? Is the sensor bad (I've (...)

  NQC problem...driving me insane!
 
Hey all, I know I must be doing something very simple wrong here - but I can't for the life of me figure it out. What I'm trying to do: Have a light sensor pointed at a surface. Pass that value off to a variable (the variable then contains the (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: train control
 
(...) There is a fundamental difference between the RCX and a Lego Train controller - the controller uses smooth power from a 3-pin regulator, with the voltage varied using a chain of resistors. The RCX uses PWM power with approximately 166ms square (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
