Hello,
I am currently trying to implement a communication protocol between two bricks
using just one of the  copper wire given with the brick.
The protocol is based on manchester encoding, using a well-timed alternation of
up and low signals.
My problem is : how to generate such signals. I thought in the first time it
would be as easy as plugging a motor plug to a sensor plug.
I would then let the sensor plug be a touch sensor for BrickOs.
For the motor plug, it would really be a motor for Brickos.
But it seems that when you turn on the motor, it does not generate a continuous
signal but something more complicated.
How could i get a continuous signal on this output plug ?

(...) I think all you really need to do is switch the motor port between "float" and "brake". That's the same as opening and closing a touch sensor. I've used that for simple signals, and it seems to work fine, but I haven't tried more complex (...) (20 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
