  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)
 
  Re: some more questions about lnp.
 
duh... guess i was kinda wrong here.. IR is in reality a frequency defined from A to B. any messages sent within this spectre is said to be IR messages. so in theory sending an IR message closer to A than B from one RCX. and at the same time sending (...)

  Watch Dog Timer on the H8
 
Has anyone been able to make use of the Watch Dog Timer on the RCX? The H8 documentation seems to spell out the workings quite well. BrickOS (LegOS) has minimal support (a vector is declared for both NMI and overflow) and pbForth files list the WDT (...)

  some measurements in lnp, please comment!
 
hi all, i have made some measurements with lnp in legOS 0.2.4 under ideal conditions (dark room with minimal load on PC and RCX) and found that sending a 10 byte message with lnp_addressing_write averages on about 0.06136 seconds (+/- 10 ms for time (...)

  Re: Pass by reference
 
Ralph, The second parameter to the task is a pointer to an array of pointers. Those pointers (under DOS and other OSes) normally point to parameters on the command line (string data).

Hi. Do we have pass by reference in the current version of legOS? If we don't, I'd be very grateful if anyone could give me a simple example of how to do the same thing in C using pointers and whatever. (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: small patch to build dll on linux
 
John, I believe I have a good solution. I ran a test both under Win98 and a forced Linux OS (set OSTYPE=LINUX in makefiles). Below is a patch file for the current CVS version of brickOS.

  Re: Winliblnp problems
 
(...) The usual method is to put the following near the top of the .h file: #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif and the following at the bottom: #ifdef __cplusplus } #endif This eliminates the need for 2 .h files. HTH. ROSCO (22 years ago, 10-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
