I have this program that monitors the location of a camera mount in a
360 degree turn. (0 and 16 are 0, 8 is 180 etc) However whenever I use
SetSensor(SENSOR_2, SENSOR_ROTATION);
it blanks the current sensor value when the program is restarted. This
is a HUGE pain as it takes time to reset the mount to 0 if the RCX
powers down.

I tried to use the other way but so far I can't get it to work.
SetSensorType(SENSOR_2, SENSOR_ROTATION);
SetSensorMode(SENSOR_2, SENSOR_MODE_ROTATION);


Also has anyone else noticed that the rotation sensor seems to lose two
points per rotation and back?

I'm using a Gear motor and a worm gear box. The Rotation Sensor is on
the end opposite from the motor.
Has anyone else had this sort of errors?

(...) The reset is a consequence of one of the bytecodes used to configure the sensor. I don't see a way to work around it. (...) This will have the same problem - in fact the generated code is probably identical (except for perhaps order) to just (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
