  Monitor() and Event()
 
Can someone teach me more on Monitor() and Event()? Does the Monitor() check the event status repeatly or we have to make a repeat task to activate the monitoring job? If it is not checking the event status repeatly, why we cannot just read the (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  NQC 2.2 r2 released

  Re: RCX Code tutorial or better program all together?
 
(...) There sure is.... NQC, a program of the gods. (URL) the news group lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc is where you discuss NQC. -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Connecting 2 RCXs
 
(...) Hook up the output of RCX.A to the Input of RCX.B. Set the RCX.B's input to Touch. Now toggle the RCX.A's output from OFF and float. This will turn the ground 'short' on and off and work Exactly like a switch. No power runs though the Input (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  NQC and RCXCC
 
Using NQC together with RCXCC (by Mark Overmars) is a fine combination that fulfills my demands for writing software, debugging and testing. Unfortunately, Mark Overmars, the author of RCXCC will not do any further development for this product. (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Connecting 2 RCXs
 
The IR interface is one way to establish a "connection" via messages between 2 RCXs and it works fine if both of the RCXs will receive a message - directly or by multiple reflections within the room. However, it is a slow communication. My problem (...) (24 years ago, 19-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Vision Command
 
No. There isn't any. You cannot control the camera form NQC or the RCX for that matter. You can respond to the messages that the Camera sends to the brick via Message(). I hope this syntax is right.... until(Message)>0); switch(Message()) case 1: // (...) (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Vision Command
 
Is there syntax that I am missing to address the "Vision Command" camera? Thanx! Ed (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  "True" Interrupts
 
When I did some work with the new control structures, I found out that they are quite nice (monitor and acquire). However, you could do the same in the past but you needed to split your program into several tasks which are controlled of a task (...) (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) That's why my post ended on a positive note. It's not that I'm ungrateful. Without Lego I wouldn't have hundreds of thousands of bricks all over my house... heh heh. I also wouldn't have 3 RCX's, a Scout & a Micro Scout. Lego just moves very (...) (24 years ago, 11-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) In that case: Dear Lego: Please allow random memory access via the next firmware, either through access to the datalog or some other mechanism. Thanks! (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) I wouldn't be quite so pessimistic. Although TLG doesn't really participate in these conversations, I'm certain they are reading them. Also, several of the more annoying limitations of the original firmware were removed (or at least eased) (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) Lego has made it quite clear that they will not listen to us. They say that it pollutes their vision or something. All we can do is hope that the few people they do ask for feedback will point out these 'lacking' points. But, since version 2.0 (...) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) I think you answered your own question. :) (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: The Datalog
 
Sorry, Dean - now I got your point. There is indeed no way to read the contents of the datalog. What about storing the data (e.g. for path information, maps, etc.) into an ARRAY instead of the datalog? With RIS2.0 and the latest NQC version you have (...)

  Re: The Datalog
 
(...) Please don't get any of us wrong, the DataLog is a WONDERFUL feature. It makes for the greatest use of the brick as a data gatherer... The ONLY gripe any of us have is that the RCX it's self cannot read back the DataLog... If we could we could (...) (24 years ago, 9-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  The Datalog
 
To my mind, the datalog is a good feature, since it helps with debugging or adjusting sensors. I found very useful for analyzing light sensor values, measured during movements (e.g. proximity detection). Another useful application was measuring the (...)

  Re: The datalog
 
(...) Series of measurements. I've used it to measure light sensor values while doing a 360 degree turn next to a candle (disappointing, the candle made hardly a dent), and to measure raw values for touch sensors while pushing them slowly, 1/100mm (...)
