| | Yet another Q: IR messages
|
|
I can't figure out how to use the IR commands. I've tried, read a bit in the documentation, but still have no clue. I'd like to know how to: a) Send a message (and decide what message it should be) and b) learn how to recieve messages Thanks in (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi Dean, thanks for your interesting idea for a reduction of transmission time. I will deal with that as soon as possible. Your questions: (...) Version 2.0 (...) No. Do you think that is faster?

Hi Marco, it is always interesting how many other people in the world do have the same problems or are dealing with the same subject.

Thanks for the info on the electric datalink. It's a clever idea that I never would have thought of myself. It seems to me that you could cut down on your transmission time if you changed the shape of your pulse train. The pauses between bits don't (...)

I am not positive about this, but some of the jitter may be due to the mode in which the motor outputs work. They are PWM at 125 Hz, so I am wondering if, when the byte code to change an output setting is executed, the new state setting is placed (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi Bernd, When you need it really fast, you sholud use legOS instead of NQC. A program written with NQC uses the LEGO firmware, which is a ByteCode Interpreter. This pogram is interpreted Byte after Byte from firmaware. The firmware executes the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi Adam, if I understand your problem correctly, you want to transmit a sensor value from one RCX to another RCX which will work with that value. Now, if the 2 RCXs can "see" each other than simply use the Message statement. If not, you should take (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi all, I have just switched to NQC 2.3 b1 (from 2.2) to implement the new features of the RCX 2.0. I have used event monitoring to clean up my if/else statements that control outputs. This works fine with all legal event sources, but I use allot of (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

My advice would be to try and solve the problem using the regular message facilities (SendMessage(), ClearMessage(), Message()). If you have more than 255 values to convey between the RCX's, then you can try chaining multiple messages together (with (...) (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
