(...) Hi, This is a *minor* bug in RoboLab. The sub-vi diagram will have begin and end terminal labels swapped, but the program will function properly. Use the text tool to rename the terminal labels. Thought it should have been rectified in ver (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) In a LabVIEW program (vi) there is a front panel and a block diagram. The front panel is the user interface and contains both controls and indicators. When you place a control/indicator on the front panel a corresponding terminal is created on (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Tom, Just for my education purpose, I'd like to understand the difference between the "begin" & "end" control boxes at the "Front Panel" window. Although they look identical, they must be different since they failed to wire to the blocks next to (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) It is a leftover from LabVIEW. When you create a sub.vi, LabVIEW reuses the name of whatever is wired to the control/indicator. This behavior makes perfect sense in LabVIEW but much less so in Robolab. FWIW, the names are little more than (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi, After a sub-vi is created, there are two controls created namely begin and end. Would someone explain why they are backwards? That means, it creates an "end" control linked to the beginning of the sub-vi, while the "begin" at the end. Thank in (...)

Hi I wonder if I can call a sub program (another vi) within a program. There is an icon command for inserting another vi program into a program, but it does not seem to be a usable function though. Please advise. I understand the maximum of (...) (21 years ago, 14-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

The replacement firmware has several modes for displaying the clock. HH.MM, MM.SS and M.SS.S. The first format is the Lego standard whcih I find failry uninformative. The clock is reset to zero whenever RCX is powered up although many IDE's reset it (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
