(...) Dave, This is good to see. You may have done this intentionally, but 'sleep' and 'msleep' are both listed twice. Also, under cputs and cputw, it says '(only forst 5 characters)' and should be '...first 5..' I've never been able to get the (...) (20 years ago, 2-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | Re: Add motor driver to RCX
|

(...) Yes, I suggest making an inertia circuit for use with trains, but for cars something else might be better. In RCX float or braked modes the power H-bridge flywheel diodes will brake the motor, but in high power applications, how often is float (...) (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Re: Add motor driver to RCX

(...) Good idea. It will be difficult, though, to determine the differnce between braked and floating motor setting, or am I wrong? Or maybe one should measure the resistance on the RCX terminal, when no voltage is put out. I thought of invading the (...) (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|

(...) Noone has it listed on Bricklink right now, but there was a recent Mindstorms survey held on LEGO.com that hints at the possibility that they might be coming out with an RIS 3.0 sometime in the near future. The other alternative is to see if (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | RIS 2.0 upgrade CD? (part 3805)
|
|
I'd like to upgrade my RIS software to 2.0, but it would appear that Lego no longer sells it. (URL) says "Sorry this item is not available in this country." I called Lego shop today, and they confirmed that it is discontinued. Perhaps someone knows (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I'm working on a scheme to do that sort of thing. I propose to use opto-couplers with their LEDs in reverse parallel, connected to the RCX output, and their transistors driving a power H-bridge powered from a separate supply. I can't see any (...)

| | Updated BrickOS Command Reference
|
|
Hello, Cleaned up the LegOS 0.2.4 Command Reference that I'd written like almost 4 years ago (has it been that long?!!) at the BrickOS site so that it is now current with BrickOS 0.2.6.10. Find it here: (URL) let me know if there are any errors, (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | Full IR packet networking

When I was looking over version 0.2.0, I saw that one of the features was Full IR packet networking. My question is what exactly does Full IR packet networking do. Does this capability allow individual RCX to be networked, meaning they can (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi Andreas, (...) It is about 22cm x 12cm for the two dimensional kernel. (couldn't resist) Actually, the size of the kernel is sort of unknown until you built it. It depends on your preferences and to some degree of the compiler version you build (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi, I've got a really small question. What's the size of the LegOS Kernel which you have to load on the RCX? Andreas (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
