I'm using MacNQC and when I try to download a firmware file I can't see the file in the "choose file" dialog, although I can plainly see the firmware file in the Finder. Any help would be most appreciated! (25 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Are you saying that if you shine a bright light into the sensor it only goes up to 47, or is that the reading you get reflected from white paper. You should get 100 when you shine a light into it.

(...) This are normal values for a light sensor. The values depend on the light in the room and the properties of the thing you're looking on (with the lightsensor). I use 40 for the border between white and black and it works well. Rainer (25 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, as a newbie I have a problem in the training center with my new 1.5 RIS. The lightsensor shows only a range of 37/47 in view-mode between black and white. (and so it doesn´t beep) Is this normal or due to a msfunction of the sensor ? Thomas (25 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
