| | | Hi, do any of you think that you can program the scout in legOS? My NQC is not working it says "could not open serial port" and it aborts the download so legOS would mabe work. Alex (24 years ago, 9-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.scout)

| | | | (...) "could not open serial port" generally means one of these things: 1) You told NQC to use a serial port that doesn't exist. By default, it will try to use Mac - modem port Win - COM1 Unix - /dev/ttyS0 You can override this with a -S option. 2) (...) (24 years ago, 12-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.scout)

I tried what you said quite a bit but it just says "usage error: try nqc-help' to display options" My serial port works fine for my Scout Tool program. and I have tried to switch the RCX to the scout like this "nqc -T Scout" and "nqc -TScout" (...)

If you're using a Scout then you need to add the -Tscout option... nqc -Tscout -d test.nqc Unless you are using NQC 2.3 b1, you'll need to manually set the Scout in "power mode" before trying to download. (version 2.3 b1 will do this (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.scout)

| | | | | | (...) SetSensor() doesn't work at all on the Scout. By definition, SENSOR_3 is the light sensor and configured in a somewhat unusual mode (it reads 0, 1, or 2). Its been a long time since I've worked on the Scout. I think you set the light (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.scout)
