 | | Battery voltage available within NQC? —Murray Altheim
|
| | | Last night I went out and bought six C cell nicads and wired them up as a power supply for my robot. What I'm wondering is this: is there some way to programmatically obtain the battery voltage, so I could make a decision based on a voltage (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | | | | (...) There's a bytecode (0x30) that instructs the RCX to send the battery voltage as a response over the IR. That's what NQC and Mindstorms use to read the battery voltage. I don't think this opcode has any effect within a program, or at best it (...) (26 years ago, 12-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
