|
| Someone in RTL said the RCX firmware ver 2 could read the datalog too. I read your documentation first since I figured you would have added functionality to NQC for that. I didn't see it in NQC. Then I check LEGO's docs but didn't see it there (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

If you really want to do something like this on the Mac, I'd suggest using the MPW version of NQC. You can do a (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|
| Um, OK, but since Perl is a bit out of my league, I think that I will hold it there. But maybe I'll learn Perl in the future, who knows? Do you think it could be done in AppleScript? (Is MacNQC scriptable, BTW?) Guess there's an easy way to check (...) (24 years ago, 1-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| (...) Sure, you could do that. You'd need to write a perl script or something to control the process. (24 years ago, 1-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: The datalog
|
| So I can just return the datalog to the computer, not have NQC choose different programs to download depending on what the datalog reads? BTW, in firware version 2, the RCX can read from the datalog, but what does that mean in reality? Can it decide (...) (24 years ago, 1-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| (...) yes (...) NQC programs do not run on the host computer. They only run on the target (RCX/Cybermaster/Scout). The NQC command can read the datalog (printing it to stdout) and download programs, but to do something intelligent you'd need another (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: Scout poweroff time out?

| (...) Possible, yes, but I'd prefer not to. The command line is already too complex. I might consider adding the information as part of the regular program download message (with the battery level). For devices other than Scout, there isn't a fixed (...)

| | | | | Re: Scout poweroff time out?
|
| (...) You know, I tried that. It didn't work. But then I'm using my new editor (that I'm working on) and had forgotten to set the brick type with EACH command to NQC. I only had it set to compile/Download. So the scout wouldn't be 'unlocked' until I (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
| | | | | The datalog
|
| Can I have the computer read the datalog after a program is finished, and then, depending on what the datalog reads, have it download a different program to the RCX? My idea would be to make a robot that stores it's movement, and thhen have the (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
