    Re: multiplexor and legOS —Mark Falco
   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 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: multiplexor and legOS —Mark Falco
   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)
   
        Re: multiplexor and legOS —Mark Falco
   Still no luck in getting the mux working properly. I tried making use of the code for turning sensors on and off but later realized that the ds_handler code would still be turning the sensor off as part of its normal operation. I think I'm going to (...) (22 years ago, 7-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
   
        Re: multiplexor and legOS —Mark Falco
   I'm happy to report that after writing the multiplexor driver at the kernel level it's working! I'll post a patch soon once I've got it cleaned up a little bit. It looks like the problem was with the legOS power/read cycle in ds_handler. Once I took (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

     (...) Sort of. Try Sourceforge ((URL) is on the "Patches" page (just click on the "Submit New" link). Great Job!! I am looking forward to be able to use the multiplexer finally! I've successfully added the "priority interrupt" patch to legOS 0.2.5 (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

        Re: multiplexor and legOS —Mark Falco
   I'm not sure if anyone is trying out my multiplexor patch, but thought I'd let you all know that I posted a new version which works better and solves some problems in the earlier revision. The patch is available in the legOS patch section on (...) (22 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
