  Re: Strange problem using 2 active sensors at the same time with 0.2.4
 
(...) I don't have a solution, but I thought I'd throw in my experiences. I curently have a robot that uses two rotation sensors, and I've never had trouble with them under either 0.2.3 or 0.2.4. I looked through your code briefly and couldn't find (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello In a actual project, i'm using the following setup: Input: 1 Rotation sensor (steering) 2 nc 3 Rotation sensor (distance measuring) Output: A drive motor B nc C steering motor If more than one sensor is set to active, only the first (steering) (...)

  Re: Math
 
I received the following comments and code from Mike Ash, whose Lugnet 'connection' appears not to be working at present. Big thanks Mike. I've yet to try it, but it looks OK in theory. (...)

  Re: Math
 
Mike, You may have to look at writing your own. I know there's a libmint (integer math) library, but I'm currently at work, and can't check what else is there. Maybe need a libm to put all math functins in?? ROSCO mike mcfarlane (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Math
 
Hi What math functions are available under legOS? I can get the usual +-/ and * to work, but not powers or square roots. Are these math functions available and what others e.g. sine, cosine etc? I thought it would be standard C stuff like pow and (...) (24 years ago, 12-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: lnp doc
 
(...) You bet! The legOS HOWTO (URL) now has a LNP section. Unfortunately the table of contents is currently broken, so you'll have to hit Next a lot. The URL to the LNP section is (URL). (24 years ago, 10-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  lnp doc
 
Hi there, I'm quite now on legOS (compiled my first program yesterday), and I'm trying to find a way of using lnp. Is there any HOWTO or reference for the RCX side/the host side ? Thanx in advance. (24 years ago, 10-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Difficulty Activating Sensors in v0.2.4
 
(...) You have to use the commands inside of a method, e.g. in the main method. I just tried it and get the exactly the same error messages if I don't put these calls inside a method. If you think you put them in a method, make sure that you don't (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Difficulty Activating Sensors in v0.2.4
 
(...) Warnings tell, that lines 120,etc are the declaration part of the program and you just redeclare ds_active and similiar functions. My advice is to look for a missing or redundant brace before these lines. -- Marek mbrudka@elka.pw.edu.pl (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Difficulty Activating Sensors in v0.2.4
 
I'm using LegOS 0.2.4 on Windows 2000 (Cygwin solution). I receive errors when I try to compile any code that activates a sensor. I've looked at both old references and new as well as the old Dave Baum book. At first, I thought it may just be the (...) (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
