| | Apparent 'time-out'
|
| I am using the TCL GUI provided by Ralph Hempel on a Windows 2000 machine to program the RCX 2.0 in pbForth. The upload of the firmware appears to be working just fine. I get responses back from the RCX and am able to create new functions without (...) (22 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

| Hi Matt, I'll try to help. :o) First, you have to specify the type of sensor that is hooked on the port. You do that with: type port SENSOR_TYPE Let me know if you need to know the different values for 'type'. 3 is a light sensor. Ports are numbered (...)

| Can anyone tell me if this function is blocking: lnp_integrity_write or, how can I find out when it is complete? I'm trying to do proximity stuff with BrickOS and I want to know when IR is being transmitted. Thanks Steve (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I'd like to set my own handler for the interrupts. For example, an interrupt handler (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Re: some more questions about lnp.
|
| The frequency of the RCX's IR does not change at all: " The RCX uses a 38kHz carrier, which is pretty typical for TV remotes. As for the sampling rate, the RCX runs at 2400 bps, which makes each bit approx 417us " (URL) think the only way you could (...) (22 years ago, 28-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
