  Re: 8 bit timer problem
 
(...) Looks like a typo - try this in your handler instead: "bclr #6, @0xc9:8 \n\t" // Clear CMFA // (bit 6 of // TCSR) I haven't really checked the rest of the code for anything else, though. HTH, Mark (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  8 bit timer problem
 
Hi I am a member of a project group at Aalborg University, Denmark, and the goal for our project on this semester is to code an operating system for the RCX brick from Lego. During a whole week, I have been strugling with the 8 bit timers of the (...) (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: true realtime event?
 
(...) It does allow some very interesting abilities too. I used it for a line-follower, where three tasks could dynamicly alter their priority depending on what was going on. Another use would be a multi-goal system. For instance, one task could be (...) (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RE: true realtime event?
 
It's not a true realtime interrupt. Some events may be recognized immediately (e.g. a new "mailbox" message, and some may be recognized on a 100 millisecond background scan (e.g. a "click" event). The event monitoring code does not put the task into (...) (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: true realtime event?
 
I can't answer your actual question, but have a close look at the way your tagline comes across. It looks (unintentionally, I'm sure) like you are closely affiliated with the LEGO company. I googled for your name and found a link to a post where you (...) (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  true realtime event?
 
Hi I am trying to find out whether the event in Robolab is a truly realtime interrupt. Once the event is triggered, does it truly preempt the current running process? Input or suggestion to reading material will be appreciated. ---...--- -------- (...) (19 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  downloading BrickOS firmware for first time
 
Hi all, I have built brickos 0.9.0 on Linux platform kernel 2.4.29. Brickos was successfully built with only C (no c++) support. My Lego is RCX2.0 and I am trying to download for first time the standard firmware. For connection with the RCX I am (...) (19 years ago, 17-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Showing Strings on LCD
 
Hi Armin, (...) probably because it runs out of memory. This is hard to avoid with strings, as Lejos doesn't garbage collect memory. Either you generate too many strings, or you have an old version of Lejos that is not careful enough in TextLCD. To (...) (19 years ago, 16-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  tips to handle firmware download problem
 
Hi, Is it easy way to unload the firmware from the RCX without having to remove the batteries? I have had problems with downloading firmware... Thank you in advance for your input. -- Elizabeth (19 years ago, 14-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Showing Strings on LCD
 
I have a RCX and three Sensors. I want to have the three sensor-values on the LCD-screen. I had an idea: changing the sensor-integer-values in String, so I have the 3 Values in a String I am showing on the LCD-screen. But if I run this in an (...)

  More data (was #pragma reserve 14 crashed my program)
 
(...) 1 & 8 don't work either which leads me to believe that I've somehow used up too much memory without getting a compile error. Steve (19 years ago, 8-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  #pragma reserve 14 crashed my program
 
I added this code to a program I've written #pragma reserve 14 #define MyVariable(@14) and it caused my program to crash. My program has many pragma reserves below 14 and they all work perfectly. Is their somthing special about 14? I don't know that (...) (19 years ago, 8-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
