 | | new patch to modify LNP ID with util/dll
|
|
I've posted a patch at sourceforge which allows you to modify the RCX's LNP id using the util/dll program. This should make life easier for those of us using multiple RCXs and LNP. This patch applies to the current CVS head, post 0.2.6, though it (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Interesting question. I'll try this at home with my remote and RCX loaded with standard firmware. Anyway, that could only say that the remote control knows that it has to send a OFF (brake) cmd to the RCX when fwd and rev are pressed together, (...)

(...) / (...) 1) gcc for the H8/300 can be called h8300-hms-gcc or h8300-hitachi-hms-gcc. You may need to edit legOS's Makefile.common 2) Is the h8300 gcc in the PATH? Max. (22 years ago, 17-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I may be wrong - 'my' RCX is actually my brother's, and is 3 hours drive away - but doesn't the remote control with the official firmware do float when buttons released, but brake if forward and reverse are pressed together? Max (22 years ago, 17-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I'm NOT biased because I DIDN'T write the thing... Forth is a wonderful language that has a proven track record. I don't use it in my job simply because management has never heard about it. I don't mean to imply that languages are chosen by (...) (22 years ago, 17-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I was torn between 'float' and 'brake' when implementing the remote control handler. I eventually opted for 'brake' since that is how the Lego RCX firmware does it. With regard to the strange motor behavior. I too noticed this while debugging the (...) (22 years ago, 16-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
