Hi Guys I have just updated the videos at (URL) It has balanced for several minutes on the kitchen floor in the mov00001 cofiguration.... but usually I start playing with the remote and that eventually throws it. I wasn't convinced before but I (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Yeah... I wonder if that's a hardware limitation... (...) Well, that defeats the purpose... and I'm almost positive that powering a sensor port with 9v is a bad idea. (...) I dunno. Is it possible (I'm still in gr12 physics) that a circuit (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) One thing you will find, is that you can't drive the motor backwards. Well, it won't go one direction. The direction depends on the wiring. Actually, that's just if you hook it to a motor port, AND a sensor port. I don't know how bad it is, (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Motors on Sensor ports
|
|
I'm just curious if there's any harm in connecting motors to active sensor ports... I know you don't get very much voltage/speed/torque, but you do get interesting readings that can be used to detect when the motor stalls. This is potentially a very (...)

| | Re: ROM image using USB tower
|
|
(...) Andrew, I grabbed a ROM image awhile back using a serial tower and an RCX 1.0. I haven't tried this on a 2.0 brick, but I think the ROMware is identical in all RCX versions. Although Kekoa's SEND.C uses the serial tower, it is not too hard to (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | ROM image using USB tower
|

Hi, I'm doing a project at University involving developing some example programs running on a Lego RCX in order to demonstrate/teach OS concepts. I'd really like to get hold of a ROM image from the RCX, but I only have a USB tower available, and (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Henrik Thanks for the pointers.... I've got it working a lot better than in the video now but have a way to go to get as good as Steve's. I'll try and get the video's updated in the next couple of days. I'm keen to hear what you and Steve make (...) (21 years ago, 10-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I have a movie of my robot balancing pretty good. Sadly I don't have a website to put it on. However, from watching your movies my tip to you would be to reduce the power to the motors (a lot!) and increase the distance from the surface to the (...)
