| A cry for help: I am trying to implement Ben Williamson’s Fetchbot (URL). I am happy that I have the mechanics right. The problem is that I want to emulate Ben’s code in Robolab. (Yes, there are reasons I use Robolab which include me being a teacher (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
| | | | | Re: questions on events
|
| (...) This is where you use the event fork(s) that you asked about in a different message. You nest these forks to determine which event has been triggered. (...) Robolab is just a LabVIEW program. Viewed in that context, it is an amazing bit of (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: questions on events
|
| (...) Yeah, my fault. I said two things that do not have to follow. Yes, you can use one event monitor to watch more than one event... and yes, you can't nest event monitoring statements. I've not used an event watcher to monitor more than one event (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|
| I have installed the new Swan Firmware via Brixcc 3.3.7.8 using standard nqc coding works ok. I'm having problems trying to include any of the new code. Question 1 How do we use the Swan.nqh file Question 2 Can we use the new variables defined in (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|
| Ok, I got it... Thanks to the Tufts site. (URL) is kind of odd that the navigation is to "create ---> constant"... "constant?" Hmmm... -- E (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | RE: Define Event icon...
|
| (...) Hi Jerry, Event Handling can be a long chapter to talk about. I am sure you will find a more well-explained chapter in some OS or just language book such as C++, or even in Java. Briefly speaking, event is a piece of real time information, (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
| | | | | Formula container?
|
| I am trying to compare the light value of two sensors, namely s1, & s2 . I don't want to go through the long route which is to save the light values from different sensors to different container, then, compare them. How about using "formula (...)

| | | | | RE: questions on events
|
| (...) Hmm..., notice that the start monitoring icon allows to watch for multiple events within the same task. If each task can only monitor a single event, that feature being there does not quite make sense. (...) This is why I suspect the "event" (...)

| | | | | RE: Define Event icon...
|
| Yes, Tom. This is exactly what I was trying to do... To trigger an event when it becomes 3. Great! Thank you very much! Cool! (...) (20 years ago, 3-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: Define Event icon...
|
| (...) The condition of being equal to 3 is not an event. However, the action of transitioning to 3 is. I'd use the "set up normal event" command followed by the "define event" command. Set the upper threshold to 4, the lower to 2, and the duration (...) (20 years ago, 2-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
