(...) The Analog to Digital converter of the h8/300 (the brains of the lego mindstorms) is 10 bits, so it has a range of 0-1023. I'm not sure how it converts that to the 0-100, it may do it by just dividing by 10 and rounding. If you want to see (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

It seems to me that it must have some sort of units, because I've never seen it hit zero even with alterations (as Ralph Hempel has described on his site). It seems like it should be (...)

(...) Is this what your looking for? (URL) terms of what units it mesures it in I don't think it really has any. it is just a relative reading from 0-100. (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I am writing a research paper about work I have done with Mindstorms this summer. One thing that I used a lot was the light sensor, but I am having a hard time finding what exactly the sensor measures. I was wondering if anyone could give me any (...)

Is there any way to zoom into the icons in robolab, they are a bit tiny and I wanted to know if I could make them look bigger so its easier to see. Also does the RCX Code (or RIS program that comes with the mindstorms kit) have the capability to (...)

Hi, folks. I've tried to connect to my RCX 1.0 (firmware 0328) from my laptop. Since I have only a serial IR tower, it works fine on my desktop PC, but communications won't work when I use a USB/serial converter to connect it to my laptop (there (...)

Ok, the motor stuff makes sense, I got a little confused with the shift thing. I looked at the proggamming manual some more and it explaned the @ (Register inderect) but I don't see why it is needed, also in you example you specify the data as (...)
