| (...) See previous post for the "I-don't-actually-do-Robolab" disclaimer, but, since Robolab & NQC both work on the same firmware... You can monitor multiple events, but only in *different* tasks. In other words, (to my knowledge) you can not "nest" (...) (20 years ago, 2-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|
| (...) I fear I became very frustrated with Robolab, so can't help you *specificly* with that enviroment, but... at a firmware level, events can "watch" several different sources: sensors, timers, three simple counters... however, they can not be (...)

|
| (...) Elizabeth, you are a few steps ahead of me in working with 'Events'. Could you explain, in plain English, what exactly an 'Event' is? ...it's not a 'State' because it can be a constant or a variable. Yet you can have an 'Event Fork' which is (...)

| | | | | Define Event icon...
|
| Hi I'd like to set up an event to watch for a containers value = 3. I am trying to use the "Define Event" icon, but has no luck yet. Just wonder if there is anyone out there has suggestion. The official doc does not explain much different from what (...) (20 years ago, 2-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | questions on events
|
| Are events stackable? Or it works more like "signal()", e.g. in C? e.g. I have 2 different light sensor events set to watch for value higher than 42, yellow & blue. Let say both sensors read 45 at the same time, RCX returns only one event being (...) (20 years ago, 2-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: using MacNQC with Spybotics via USB Tower
|
| (...) It is a capability of NQC but I was mistaken about the Mac version of NQC. It currently does not support the Spybotics target when the USB tower is used. One of the first changes I made when I took over NQC was to add the ability for NQC to (...) (20 years ago, 29-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I measured variation of RCX current with one motor, power level 3 (50% duty cycle). Idle RCX current (35mA) is (...) (20 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | RE: Motor Speed Control
|
| (...) :) (...) I'm not sure how the Swan firmware does it, but I have mine set so it cycles every 8 ms. It's on for 0 to 8 ms, then off (brake) for the rest, depending on the speed. That's fast enough to produce a very smooth result. There is no (...) (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| (...) Actually, it's more like standing on the brakes, letting go and then gunning the gas, stepping off the gas and standing on the brakes :-) And yes, that WILL use more gas, and more batteries. Now, if the resolutiion of timing for the brake (...) (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
