  Varying the output voltage?
 
I was wondering if it was possible to control the speed/torque of the motor by varying the output voltage in brickOS. It seems that the speed parameter on the motors only changes the rate at which they pulse on and off. I am looking for something (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  BrickOS Talking to Robolab?
 
Has anyone used BrickOS to talk to Robolab? I really like the Robolab visualization tools and it would be a shame to not be able to fool Robolab into to talking to the BrickOS firmware. I am in the process of designing a simple Fuzzy controller and (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: DCC for the RCX
 
Hi Ralph, I should be able to extract the source for the low level driver routines this week. If anyone else is interested, please email me. Note for BrickOS users: it's not simply a matter of plonking the routines into a program. The kernel will (...)

  Re: brickos-0.2.6.10 error
 
Scott, You need to put a .depend file and Makefile inside the directory you are compiling the programs in. Just create a file with the extenstion .depend and put it into your programs directory. There dosn't need to be anything in the file. When you (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: PC to RCX communication
 
You may check out javastorms at www.javastroms.org. The project seem to be abandoned, but the code is available. Basically it does what you aim for so it should be a good starting point. I have used the code as base for some of my own projects and (...) (22 years ago, 26-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: PC to RCX communication
 
It's been a while since I last played with LNP but I can recall that it works well under Linux. The LNP deamon must be running on the PC before the RCX and the PC can communicate. I think with windows you still need the LNP deamon running under (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  PC to RCX communication
 
I'm working a project to communicate from a PC to an RCX running the current version of BrickOS-0.2.6.10. I'm running windows 2000 professional and I use the current version of Cygwin. The idea behind the project is to create a Java application that (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

It fixes the Clear Memory function so that it now clears all five program slots (it used to leave slot 1 untouched). It fixes form and component size issues (...)

A simple port of BrickOS is also not possible, because of the complete different structure of the µC. I (...)

  gcc-3.3 - multi-line string literals
 
GCC 3.3 has made multi-line string literals a syntax error. (They were deprecated from 3.0). This is very annoying, because they made lots of sense for things like inline asms, and brickOS has lots of them. Below are patches which append \n\ to the (...)
