Are there any routines to use the SPI in interactive C already present (but apparently undocumented)? Does anyone have some code I can steal for I2C in...
Ken, Check the Handyboard.com website and the Handyboard yahoo group, I've seen code that uses the SPI port as an I2C mod. Everything that works on the...
Kenneth, You can find a range of introductory IC code under workshop materials in <http://robotics.nasa.gov/edu/9-12>http://robotics.nasa.gov/edu/9-12 Anything...
... Dan, does that include .icb's? (! I knew you were trying to make a workalike, but didn't realize the extent to which you'd succeeded. Nice job, btw.)...
Ken, Yep, .icb's also work the same as on the HB. Though I think .icb's are being phased out with the new Interactive C versions, I read on one of the forums...

This is just comments. Thank you both for your insightful replies. ... Hmm. I thought that the "servo" ports were all running off of the regulated power supply...
Okay, I get that I can't have the 7.2v servos and the 12v motors happy on the same (motor) power supply. Since the added servos run off a third battery source...
Sounds like a lot of work, I would recomend a different solution though. If I were going to be using 12v motors with the Sumo11, I'd invest in an external...

Dan, According to the User's Manual, I should be able to use Servo4..Servo7 in an IC program. The IDE/compiler won't accept as predefined, Servo6 or Servo7....

Hi guys, Is it possible to access the sensor ports on the Main Board with I2C and the HB expansion board on? If so, how do you call up the ports in the I2C...
John, Yes, the main board sensor ports are accessable through IC (not the same as I2C). The Sharp sensor ports are connected to Analog 2 (right) and Analog 2...
Hi all, Does anybody have an idea of how to setup a timer in Interactiv C. I want to calculate the velocity of my car. I am reading rpm's but I don't know how...
Look around. Is your Line following robot acting like a free range chicken wandering around the barnyard? Did your Sumo robot get pushed off the ring by your...
Just a quick post to introduce myself and send kudos to Dan for producing a couple of sweet HC11 boards! And what a great price! I just received my Sumo11 and...

Using IC there is no such thing as a "dynamic array". I am assuming you mean an array that can increase in size by allocating and adding entries. The Array is...
How do I declare a global array in IC? I have it now as float dist_array[20]. It has data, but when I try to upload, it does not show in the upload array...
All global variables are declared outside of a function, even the 'main' function. I usually put them at the top, right under the defines. Please let me know...
