  Re: SetWatch() only accepts constants
 
(...) Sorry, the opcode requires constants - there's not much NQC can do (aside from generating an enormous switch statement). Dave (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: maximum current of outputs
 
In my layout, I used Train power supply for RCX to drive train, the max voltage is 9.7v. Zhengrong (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Help needed for an NQC newbie
 
Thanks a lot. I added the while statement and it worked. As far as the value of the light sensor, I kept the value I had and it worked correctly. I will post pictures of the setup after the weekend and you will understand. Jude Thanks again for the (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Help needed for an NQC newbie
 
Try this. I had to change the value of the light sensor and add a While (true) statement. task main() { SetSensor(SENSOR_3,S...ROTATION); ClearSensor(SENSOR_3); SetSensor(SENSOR_2,S...OR_LIGHT); SetPower(OUT_A,2); while (true) if (SENSOR_2<40) { (...)

  Re: SetWatch() is remembered?
 
(...) The Watch will reset to 0000 when you turn off device. It gets cleared on power up every time. You can, however, start and stop programs and keep the time. Dean -- -Dean Husby LUGNET Member #320 (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: maximum current of outputs
 
(...) 9.3x volts when a Train Power supply is used. Down to as little as 6.5 volts when batteries are getting pretty low. Dean -- -Dean Husby LUGNET Member #320 Co-Founding Member: VLC (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: SetWatch() only accepts constants
 
(...) You can use the NQC -watch now command to set the time. Dean (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Help needed for an NQC newbie
 
Hi, Normally you can see me in .space, .loc.ca, or org.ca and the like. But now that I have an RCX I want to program a bit. I have written my first NQC program and compiled it using RCXCC. I then downloaded it to my RCX but when I press run the legs (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  RE: SetWatch() is remembered?
 
Take the batteries out (and unplug the external power on RIS 1.0) and it forgets everything, Date, Time, Programs/Tasks, even "Firmware"... "ZZZzzzombie" RCX :) mc. (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  SetWatch() is remembered?
 
So does this mean that the RCX acts like a PC in that it does not forget the date/time when it is turned off or the batteries changed? Should I just write a one line program to set the time, and remove the time code from my actual NQC program? Thank (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  maximum current of outputs
 
Hi hardware-specialists, does anyone know the maximum continuous current that a RCX motor output can drive? (I want to connect a light.) Thanks a lot. Bernd (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  RE: SetWatch() only accepts constants
 
Instead of sending ByteCodes from the PC and getting the RCX to interpret them, you can construct and send the SetWatch() OpCode plus the correct "constant" time and send it through Spirit.OCX (or directly, depending of the platform). (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  SetWatch() only accepts constants
 
I just wrote a task and function that cause the RCX to receive data from the PC and then set the time on the RCX using SetWatch(). Unfortunately, I didn't realize that SetWatch() only accepts constants. NQC complained when integer variables were (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  MIDI to NQC/RIS2.0 translator "Midi2LSC"
 
Hi, All ! I wrote a Windows 95/98/Me/2000 free software. This program named "Midi2Lsc" is SMF (Standard MIDI File) to LSC (LEGO Script Language of RIS2.0 SDK) and/or NQC translator. It is alpha test release status now. SMF format 0/1/2 support (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Display the value of Scout sensors
 
Scout is cheaper, but when you debug NQC program in Scout, you have no way to watch the value of its sensors, I made a small program that can show sensors value in a RCX LCD, you can use remote to change watching sensor, message 1 for sensor1, (...)

  About SensorValueRaw(SENSOR_3) in Scout
 
I tried to get raw value of sensors in Scout, the SensorValueRaw(0/1) is ok, I get the raw values of Sensor1 and Sensor2, but I found SensorValueRaw(2) doesn't work, no value is returned. Then I found a example in NQC Guide Version 2.3 r1, it is (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Strange happenings
 
(...) I'll consider adding those in the next release. To be honest, its probably more work from a documentation side than from a code perspective. (...) If its working, don't bother sending the code. But if it stops working again, then send the code (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Strange happenings
 
(...) It was very odd, I've been having a lot of problems with that onfor command. I had a command that was supposed to go for 1 second. OnFor(AOUT_B,100); and it would NEVER stop. I changed it to 10 and it worked for a bit then stopped. It just (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Strange happenings
 
Looks straighforward. Perhaps an NQC bug. Can you email me the complete program and also compile with the -l option and send me the listing (or if you're using an IDE, then there should be some menu choice to produce a disassembly list)? Dave Baum (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Strange happenings
 
(...) This almost sounds like a mechanical problem. Try the program with jsu the brick connected to motors or lights and see if you get the expected result. Lester (23 years ago, 12-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
