  RCX schematic
 
Hey, Does anyone know where to find a schematic of the RCX, or at least know what output ports map to the sensors and motors? Thanks -Brent Talley (22 years ago, 6-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Powered off, but still on?
 
(...) Funny, I just posted an article here about something similar. I started using LegOS a few days ago, and had the following problem a few times: after a power off period (of several hours) the power on did not produce any visible effect, and the (...)

  LegOS shorting the batteries?
 
Hi, (I'm new to Mindstorms and new to LegOS so excuse me if this is a stupid/obvious question.) I'm using LegOS 0.2.6 on w2k. I built a simple rover robot, and a program to control it (2 touch sensors, a ligth sensor, 2 motors) in C, and upload it (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problem using emulegos
 
First off what OS are your running on? I do all emuLegOS development under Linux (Mandrake 8.1, not that it should matter), so if you are on any other platform you may run into issues. Of course emuLegOS should work on just about any Unix as long as (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  **** legOS new name poll starts now ****
 
Let us start the "new legOS name project". The procedure is the following: 1) send your name proposals (10.06. - 22.06.) Please mail me your name ideas. Do this with a personal e-mail to: legOS-namepoll@gmx.de The subject line should read (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Powered off, but still on?
 
Recently, I went to use a couple RCXs that were loaded with LegOS. These two had both been used previously (about 1 to 2 weeks ago) but should have both had plenty of battery life remaining. I found that they both had drained the batteries (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Here I go...
 
Well, I've just volunteered to give a presentation on LegOS at Brickfest 2002. I don't think I'm the most qualified person to present LegOS, but I am willing. And that seems to be the only real requirement! First, I'm a programmer (VB), and I've (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: bug in setting lnp host address?
 
And, you'll probably hate my reply... "Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should." The very idea of a discontinuous array of bits representing a network address in something as rudimentary as LNP makes my hair stand on end. The idea (...)

  Re: bug in setting lnp host address?
 
you'll probably hate me for being a nitpicker.... (...) technically, you should not do any bitshifting at all. There is always the odd case when someone decides to be clever and have a hostmask with interleaved zeros. for example, a hostmask of (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: bug in setting lnp host address?
 
You are correct in stating that I shouldn't have restricted you to 16 nodes X 16 ports. I did however, want to normalize the host address in the visible API and user interfaces to be a small 0..N number instead of a random hex byte value, properly (...)

Scott, I suggest you start by following the instructions by Paolo Masetti found at (URL) He has written a pretty thorough set of instructions that should get you started.

  Re: Mac OS X
 
Ed, Thanks, I was familiar with that thread. Unfortunately not much useful info came out of it. I was hoping for a report from someone who was ultimately successful in building legOS and its tools, as well as building the cross-compilers on a USB OS (...)

Hi, Has anyone had any success with building the legOS system under Mac OS 10.1.4? I downloaded version 0.2.6, put it in my user application folder, and then just typed make. Here is the result.
