  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Andy- Have you set up the rotation sensors correctly? You need to do a few things before you get reasonable values for the rotation sensor. 1) use ds_active(&SENSOR_1) to turn on the sensor. 2) use ds_rotation_on(&SENSOR_1) to turn on the (...)

  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Well, I do not know if I have to have code to display the values. I do not get anything on screen when I run this code. If I put a loop, and with every loop, the sensor value is being displayed, then I get the values mentioned before. I run the (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I added back in the display code, and left out the lcd_refreshes. Then I got a proper counter. I wonder why the refresh was throwing the reading off. Thanks for all your help, Andy (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) That's a good question. Is this the latest tarball? If so, there have been some modifications to the refresh loop, and this may indicate a bug in them. In other words, it could be the double sets of lcd_refresh() and not the actual reading (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Hee, Hee. It was 0.2.3, not 0.2.4. Here is the code snippet that setup and read the values. The current(working) code takes out the refresh, and changes the delay to msleep. ds_active(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_on(&SENSOR_2); (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) phew :) Had me scared there for a while. I'll probably still take a look at it later- I just didn't want to have caused a bug so soon after starting to apply patches.

  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I figured you would be glad that I was not running 0.2.4. I cannot get it to compile correctly, so I use 0.2.3 instead. The two full programs are below, in case you wanted to see them in full.

  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Ack! You are still having problems with 0.2.4? I thought your problem was with the compiler, and not legOS? <flips through old Andy Gombos posts on lugnet> Is this still the merge-map problem? I figured out the situation, and fixed it in CVS. Sorry (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I downloaded the tarball, and tried to compile it. when I an in /boot, it tries to do a genlds, and exits with an error. When I try to run genlds, it says Segmentation Error(or fault, I can't remember). I think the only reason that I can use 0.2.3 (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Hmm. DJGPP or Cygwin? I thought it was cygwin, but that sounds like a DJGPP problem. (...) Again, DJGPP or Cygwin? Thanks, Andy- I'm sorry to bug you, but I'd really hate to be responsible for putting out something that I know is broken. Luis (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I am using Linux. It is a minimalistic setup, but I have downloaded all of the extra stff that needs to be used for legOS. Before this error happens, legOS.srec is built, which I did not know before. Now I get errors involving the include files in (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Yes. It will only display two counter readings, then stop! See the "return 0;" statement. It is inside the while (1) loop. Take it out of the loop, and I am shure this one will also work. At least with 0.2.4 it does. (...) Here the return (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Could you please post the compile command the makefile generates to the list, including the error? Like in: ecd@reset:~/lego/min...egOS/demo> make /usr/local/bin/h8300...hi-hms-gcc -O2 -fno-builtin -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Oops. When I copied it, that statement got left out, and I put it bck in in the incoorect place. The original version of the code had the return in the outside loop. I know it is this way because I could turn the rotation sensor slowly, and see the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
This is the whole directory command dump. These errors are half-corrected if I specify ../include/*.h in the include# line. Then I get errors about not being able to find other *.h's that the originals included. Makefile:41: .depend: No such file or (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
