I have it now, thank you.
I've figured out how POWER_GET works, but not the return values. From the
docs it takes one argument, but the code says two ( addr-a code -- )
HEX RCX_POWER 4000 POWER_GET RCX_POWER @ DECIMAL .
seems to return 2 if the button isn't pressed, and 0 if it is.
Do you know the mapping of the raw battery voltage values? I seem to get
280 (decimal) for NiCds
I think it would be batter to have two calls
get_on_off_key_state ( -- state )
get_battery_voltage ( -- millivolts )
and do whatever needs to be done to return a flag for the first and true
voltage for the second.
POWER_OFF doesn't seem to work for me. I've tried:
RCX_INIT
POWER_INIT
BUTTON_INIT
SENSOR_INIT
then:
POWER_OFF
just causes the RCX to die and the ON/OFF button doesn't get it back.
I've tried HAT and BUILD and SLEEP, etc and so far it seems to work.
