Thanks a lot Dean - works perfectly. A good trick - and so evident that I am a bit frustrated not to find it out by myself ... ;-) But this is what friends are for (was it Whitney Houston who sang that?) Bernd (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Thanky Dave for your reflections concerning the timing. The thing that caused some astonishment and a little bit of frustration is that the RCX is so slow. O.K. - the code sent to the RCX is interpreted and this needs some time. However, I was (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | Re: Monitor() and Event()

(...) Monitoring is automatic (done by the firmware). Monitoring stops when control leaves the monitor statement, so something like this: while(true) { monitor(EVENTS) { } catch { } } will miss a lot of events. You need to configure the events using (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I wouldn't expect Wait() to be very precise. I haven't looked at the firmware in great detail, but generally when writing this sort of thing you set up timing chains. Imagine a function that gets called every 1ms for bookkeeping... void (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | Timing of RCX statements
|

I was trying to simulate a serial link by using an output of the RCX. I didn't work and when I analyzed the timing, I found out that the RCX's execution of statements is far too slow for the protocol I wanted to simulate. So I made some measurements (...)

Can someone teach me more on Monitor() and Event()? Does the Monitor() check the event status repeatly or we have to make a repeat task to activate the monitoring job? If it is not checking the event status repeatly, why we cannot just read the (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Hook up the output of RCX.A to the Input of RCX.B. Set the RCX.B's input to Touch. Now toggle the RCX.A's output from OFF and float.
