I've now managed to figure out how to talk to my LCD. I've changed a few things on my breadboard, so I'm not sure if I solved the problem I was originally...
There is an Algonquin course aimed at youth in Beginning Electronics and Robotics for a week in July ( GEN0164). It mentions ORE in a sidehand way. Is one of...
Hi All just wanted to announce April's Buildfest will be Saturday the 14th at the Bug'n'Bots Store. It will be starting at 10:00 am. If anyone wants more info...
Frankly, (sorry to any "Frank"'s on the list) I think the entire problem needs to be re-visited. Why on earth, in this day and age of digital technology, are...
... Ah. I didn't know it was possible to set individual LAT bits (rather than setting the entire port at once). ... Yeah, those are probably much higher than...
I must agree re: the e-book. When I sat down and wrote my list of questions, I had that in mind, but neglected to ask. I guess I assumed that he had a valid...
... Check the files in ..\mcc18\include, you'll find definitions for lots of useful stuff. Strictly speaking though, your original code should work, a write to...
This was an email forwarded to me. ... See Cluster Robots at the EDA Tech Forum in Ottawa, ON Don't miss keynote speaker James McLurkin's live robot...
Hello Everyone, Although I have not been around for a while now, I have been playing with my MiniOre board to learn about electronics and pics. I now need a...
Hi, I wanted to get an idea of how many people will be entering the first contest on April 29. So far, there are 3: Me, RonC and Guy. Thanks, Mordechai ... ...
I think it should be fast enough. I have used those sensors to sense an black/white disk attatched to the shaft of an electric motor to measure the motor...
Hi Mordechai, Well the interest is there ... I hoped to have something ready, but other (life) things keep coming up. I'll be there to check out the action...
All: I'm working on an entry for this since my trip to Hartford this weekend is simply not going to happen. :( How long is the distance between the pylons...
I would like to come out, but so far have not been able to tickle this BGMICRO GPS to life. But, there is always the "faint hope" clause... At the very least,...
Ken: I got "BG-Micro" GPS working for me just this weekend. It was a bit of a trial so I want to save you some time with some pointers. First, get a decent 5V...
OK, you gave me new hope. Zip and un-zip wouldn't repair it, so I downloaded RAR and was able to do a repair, then extract some of the exe's off of the zip...
Ken (others too), Albert's post was pretty well detailed so I don't have anything to add. I have versions of the Zip files that are intact, and data sheets if...
... No problem. The photo transistors are more than fast enough to deal with that. If you check the datasheet for the qrd1114s, they claim that the rise...
Thank you Aaron, Ron, At that speed I could spin those coils in less that 2 seconds... watch out .:)) I had looked at the spec sheet for the qrd1114 but I was...
Well, thanks, both. The key was reflashing it. Once I had done that, it couldn't wait to spew stuff at me. The only difference I have seen to stuff out...
Ken, I can't remember why I chose TSIP to focus on, probably a coin toss ... Here is the VC6 code, if you have any questions let me know ... Allen ... ...
