Hi, I am contemplating if it is smart way to intercept un-welcoming signal to the RCX, such as the remote shutdown, etc. ---...--- -------- Best Regards, Elizabeth Mabrey (19 years ago, 2-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) I tried with both 0.2.6 and 0.9.0 (...) I am sorry for imprecise expressions. I meant that I followed your suggestions. But the result was the same as before. (...) I didn't try yet. (...) I am able to use brickos under command prompt as well (...) (19 years ago, 31-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: swan question
 
(...) The help file should explain when you can use the MTR_A constant versus when you can use the OUT_A constant. It will tell you that MTR can be used with the MotorPowerXXX and SetMotorPowerXXX functions. Use the help system Find feature and it (...) (19 years ago, 30-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  swan question
 
Hi I'm experimenting with the Swan firmware but I have a puzzle. Is the constant OUT_A a direct equivalent to MTR_A as replacing OUT_A with MTR_A doesnt seem to work.I've used SetMotorPower128(MTR_A,50) to set motor speed. The command that doesn't (...)

  Re: compiling problem
 
(...) I'm glad that your problem was so quickly resolved. Isn't LUGNET great? In the future, if you have problems compiling NQC code you might want to post the exact error text generated by the compiler. If you use BricxCC to run NQC the full error (...)

  Re: compiling problem
 
(...) thanks for replying Kevin, a) i did not know there were compile options, how do i change them? b) i am getting parse errors on the close brackets just before ELSE and the third-last bracket thanks (19 years ago, 21-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: compiling problem
 
You are missing semicolons after the: Wait(turn_time) lines (both) And a code suggestion, instead of: task drive() { while(true) { OnFwd(OUT_A); } } make it: task drive() { OnFwd(OUT_A); while(true) { } } as the motor stays OnFwd until turned off.

Hi Bennet, Before we can help, we need a bit more information: a) What NQC compile options are you using? b) What syntax errors are you getting? Kev (...) <snip> (19 years ago, 21-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

could someone please tell me what is wrong with this program? i am new at nqc and can not seem to find a way to compile it. the program is for a front-wheel-drive tricycle similar to Michael Gasperi's version of a "grey walter turtle" #define (...)

  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) 1. What version of brickos do you have installed? (cat VERSION from the brickos root directory and post the output) 2. What do you mean by "Of course I did in vain."? Be as precise as possible in your answer. With a correctly installed copy of (...) (19 years ago, 19-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) As I said before, I am able to use brickOS under cygwin. Does this mean that I have files required by brickOS? I guess you don't mean that I have to run the two commands: make realclean make (Of course I did in vain.) Je-Young Choi (19 years ago, 19-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: NQC/BricxCC test
 
(...) Only if active is meant to cause the watch window to quit polling for values if some other BricxCC window is the active window. When graphing this means that after you bring up the graph window you need to click back on the Watch window to (...) (19 years ago, 18-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) I have dug around a bit on my computer and I managed to duplicate your problem. If I do a make realclean from the brickOS root directory: C:\cygwin\brickos>make realclean [lots of output delete] then when I run make -f helloworld.mak I get the (...)

  Re: NQC/BricxCC test
 
(...) Duh! I had 'only if active' ticked and I dont suppose that changes in my light sensor were enough to trigger it. I now have watching the brick & graphing working! I notice that (unused) counter 0 and 1 take on the values of var 0 and 1 and (...) (19 years ago, 18-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Thank you very much for your enduring kindness. (...) The content of helloWorld.mak is the same as that you wrote before. When I run make -f helloWorld.mak, I get nothing. When I run make -f helloWorld.mak after deleting helloworld.lx, I get make: (...) (19 years ago, 18-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: NQC/BricxCC test
 
(...) This seems to have fixed all the problems that I was having with the serial tower and Bricx.

  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) Given that your OS Root setting was wrong before and now it is right then modifying that setting did help. It just didn't completely fix your problem. The OS Root setting in BricxCC needs to be set to the Cygwin path to the root of the brickOS (...) (19 years ago, 17-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
I am able to use (compile and download) brickOS under cygwin but not under BricxCC. (...) I am sorry to say that the modification in the "OS root" setting didn't help. In fact I installed BricxCC in 2 of my computers. Both show the same error (...) (19 years ago, 16-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  NQC/BricxCC test
 
I could use some help testing a modification to NQC and BricxCC which is attempting to correct some problems I introduced with the serial IR tower and also the USB tower.
