  Re: Problem
 
(...) Are you sure you typed "ln"? That should be "LN" but lowercase. It can be easy to confuse "l" with "i". ROSCO (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Problem
 
Hey all, I have winXP and have installed Cygwin and all and have everything i need to install brickOS on my RCX. Althought when i try to install brickOS on my RCX i type the command into the cygwin bash shell and it returns a error. The command is: (...) (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Beginners questions
 
I coached a FIRST LEGO Robotics team last year and the team members used RIS. Before the season gets underway I would like them to learn Robolab. I've been working with it for a few days now and have a few questions. I searched the news groups and (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, FTX)
 
  Re: brickOS v1?
 
(...) doesn't it do that already with kernel 2.6? I have a serial tower, so I wouldn't know, but it sems logical (as nqc requires that driver and it's just there for me : fc2) Thomas (20 years ago, 24-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: BrickOS on Mac OS X (restarted ?)
 
(...) It seems like MacNQC can be used to download a new firmware on the RCX: (URL) you didn't, you should give it a try. I also had problems downloading firmwares to the RCX through the USB tower with many utilities. Only NQC did it right. Please (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Did you upload the pbforth_servo.srec file? (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: Pbforth probs
 
(...) The fact is that nothing happens! Servo doesn't move (the interface works well with NQC) Or the console says "ABORTED etc..." What's wrong? (20 years ago, 22-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  RE: Pbforth probs
 
Sorry, the page IS unclear. 0 1 0 SERVO_SET will center the servo on the first motor port 50 1 0 SERVO SET wil moove it in one direction 100 1 0 SERVO_SET will move it more in one direction -50 1 0 SERVO_SET will move it in the other direction -100 (...)

  Pbforth probs
 
Hi. After reading the web pages, word lists, help, tutorials, I still wonder how to control SERVO MOTORS with PBForth. I tried the SERVO_SET command but it says "ABORTED (missing ;?)" What does it mean?How can I interprete the syntax explained on (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: Sensor inputs of RCX
 
Hi Andreas, (...) this is the pwoer supply for active sensors (light and rotation). It is interrupted briefly every 3ms to sample the value of the sensor. (...) It is done by the microcontroller, every 3ms the OCIA interrupt routine turns off the (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Sensor inputs of RCX
 
(...) Hi Andreas, Sensor inputs can be configured two ways: 1. Passive - sensor does not need power to operate 2. Active - sensor needs power to operate Active sensor ports put out aproximately 7V most of the time, and drop the voltage (every 3ms?) (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Sensor inputs of RCX
 
Hi, I'm interested in the electronical function of the three sensor inputs of the RCX. I took an osilloscope and measured the voltage of the ports. So I got to know that a rectangular signal is put on the sensor ports when they are activated by (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  BrickOS on Mac OS X (restarted ?)
 
11 months ago, there was a thread in this newsgroup dealing with the implementation of BrickOS on Mac OS X. I was just wondering whether the situation had changed since then. I've downloaded M. Zapp's port of the GCC cross-compiler and tools, have (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)  
 
  Re: Using the RCX for animating LEGO Train displays?
 
NGLTC (and other train club) members have been getting creative with their mindstorms. 1) Rail Racers! 2) Lewis Valentine has made a working train drawbridge on the NGLTC layout. It's taken him a lot of tinkering, but it works very well! 3) Street (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
(...) Hi Roger, Thank you for your help, it is a bit strange that you dont see any problems, since it is the same protocols we are using. I dont think the joystick is the problem since I have the same problem with inputs from keyboard or mouse, but (...)

Kevin- I am trying to build a heavy duty automatic truck transmission, and I have a few questions concerning pneumatics. 1) I did a few rough sketches of what the transmission would look like (the main part of it is the valve, which I originally (...)
