Hello everybody, I`m just starting to use Lego Dacta products and I have one doubt: can I use NQC with other lego interfaces such as the 9751 kit, or does NQC only work with RCX? I need to know that becuase here in the University we still don`t have (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  MacNQC can't open the #include file
 
When I have an #include line in my .nqc source file, such as #include "incl_file.nqh" the compiler complains that it can't open the referenced file. I get the following error: Error: could not open file incl_file.nqh test_file.nqc line 1 #include (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Blocking problem?
 
Hi all, The model this is written for is a biped walker with each leg driven by it's own motor. The PB is a Scout. It uses a modified version of ping.nqc to do IR proximity detection. When it detects that there is an obstacle, it should back up, (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Robot Controller 1.3b1
 
I've posted a new version of Robot Controller ---the ideal companion to NQC for Mac OS X users. This version adds several new features: it can synchronise the RCX watch with your computer's clock, it has a new pane which lets you read and change the (...)

  Re: Shuting up the RCX
 
It is easier to use legOS to instead NQC, and it is more power, very easy to be used. Zhengrong (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Shuting up the RCX
 
(...) Well, you could hack the LEGO firmware. Not easy but possible. Jürgen (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Shuting up the RCX
 
(...) Right, that's an option but perhaps not the ideal for me since I'm working with NQC. Any other? Thanks anyway Jürgen. (23 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: RCX remote control and the use of PICs
 
Hi Stef, A great project, well designed, and very well documented and presented. Thanks! I'll probably make one of these pretty soon. Nice work Michael (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  RCX remote control and the use of PICs
 
hi All, Inspired by some applications of the 16F84 PIC, we came up with the idea to make a IR-module, which is capable of doing all the InfraRed tasks we could imagine with the RCX. Well it hasn't come so far, but we have build a RCX IR-remote (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
I was using my scout this past weekend as a coinbox detector to launch a mono rail. The touch sensors work exactly as Dave suggests. You can also just do the following: until(SENSOR_1); Waits until it's touched. until(!SENSOR_1); Waits until the (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
 
  Re: How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
(...) That is what I thought, but it will determine if the touch sensor is pressed. (...) Dunno, I'll try. Then again, if !=255 works... (...) If it were not for Perl I'd never write a line of code ^_^ (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
 
  Re: How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
This program turns on motor A and leaves it running until a touch sensor attached to input 1 is pressed, then it turns off the motor and plays a sound: task main() { On(OUT_A); until(SENSOR_1 == 1); Off(OUT_A); PlaySound(SOUND_UP); } Dave (...)

  Re: How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
Hi Chris, (...) this is a bit crazy, unless your sensor value is a bit pattern. (...) This is sensible, but are you sure it's ok to use equality and not inequalities like SensorValueRaw(1) < 240? (...) but it's equivalent, also in C, where & is (...) (23 years ago, 16-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
 
  Re: How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
I've sort of solved my problem, but not in a way which really makes total sense. Both of the below fragments work as expectd: #1 if ((SensorValueRaw(1) & SensorValueRaw(0)) != 255) #2 if ((SensorValueRaw(1) != 255) || (SensorValueRaw(0) != 255)) (...)

  How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?
 
All, I'm feeling pretty stupid right about now. I've read the NQC docs, looked in the newsgroups, books, etc, but I can't seem to figure out how to read the touch sensors on my Scout. I want to implement a bumper checking task but no matter how I (...) (23 years ago, 16-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

Thank you for these posts! This idea of creating a table of arctangents is just what I need. I'll let everyone know how it works after I redesign the racer.

  Re: Trigonometry and NQC
 
Hi Richard, No, NQC does not implement any of the trig functions. However, you can do it yourself. The idea is to use a second order polynomial to approximate the sine function. You can get pretty good accuracy (within about 5%) if you break up the (...) (23 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
