Since I'm now fairly sure that i've got the timing taken care of I'm wondering
if the power cycling that ds_handler does is somehow causing the problem? I
thought I might take control of this stuff in my test code. I assume if I set
the sensor for passive and then write procedures (in assembly) to turn on and
off the power to the mux things should be safe? Would there be a problem when
ds_handler attempted to read the senor? I assume it wouldn't work but
currently I'm just trying to get the switching going.
I looked through ds_handler trying to pick out the assembly that would be
needed but my attempts just end in a locked RCX. If anyone farmilar with H8
assembly can post the few lines of assembly to power a sensor on and off that
would be very helpful.
thanks,
mark

| Ok, my last port didn't make much sense let me try that again. for an active sensor ds_handler will periodically power the sensor off to read the value. The standard firmware does this to but at a different interval. I'm wondering if this is part of (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

It looks better but still is not consistent. Since (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
