Nathan, I have done this trouble shooting step, ie. changing the timing. Unfortunately, it did not work. But, thank you though. Well, the a W2Kpro virtual machine approach did not work either... I guess my only alternative will be getting the (...) (22 years ago, 1-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) Disagree. It's a matter of habitudes. Once you're familiar with the whole environment, you may write extremely complex programs without getting lost. For example, in our recent "Mars-mission" telerobotics project the complete programming -the (...) (22 years ago, 30-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) They do work! But they are usually used with two quadrature outputs (hence the name), while on RCX only one wire is used and the 4 states are encoded as 4 voltages levels.

(...) The way I understand it, it's really not the sensor's fault. The RCX and firmware together either can't or doesn't deal with the ambiguous voltage levels sometimes returned during two of the four transitions. If the RCX were fast enough that (...)

Could someone explain to me technically why this sort of of problem with the rotation sensor occurs? I know how quadrature shaft encoders are _supposed_ to work, and I can't see why this sort of thing should happen in the first place. >> Mark (22 years ago, 30-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
