Perhaps you could elaborate on what kinds of sensors you've got and what you're trying to do with them. Are these sensors light sensors, bump sensors,...
Hi, I have two programs listed here,<sena_senb_cal1> and <aim7>. when I try to load I get error messages <servo_deg undefined>, <servo_on undefined>. Have...
The sharps themselves do not have any code in the handyboard,. they are just analog inputs on floating ports. The servo's on the other hand do require a driver...
I have a sonar mounted on a servo and sharp below it. The servo pans left to right to left and the sonar takes readings for each direction. The sharp measures ...
I am having the same problem, did anyone find a fix? Mark ... to ... servo2, ... if ... to...

You need to load the code with those function calls. Create a .lis file with the name of your .c file and add servo.c and servo.icb. Then load that. E.g.: ...
It really sounds like you have the answer. How many minutes of operation do you get before the "supply voltage low" starts? I believe a fully loaded TS-53...
Well, if I was designing the robot, I would look into design considerations for saving power. Ex. instead of powering the servo all the time, I would probably...
Do you mean LMD18200 @ this website? LMD18200 - www.national.com/ds/LM/LMD18200.pdf L293D - www.st.com/stonline/books/pdf/docs/1330.pdf if yes, you have to...
Hello I have a problem with my handboard. I am assembling it, and whem I download the firmware and reset the board, the LCD still shows the black blocks. The ...
Thanks Ang for the site,it was helpful and my sumobot is working fine with the 18200 motor controller. Jayanth Ang Siau Eng <xiao_en@...> wrote:Do you...
Hi Nguyen, Sorry for not reply u sooner because I am in the middle of assignments due and exams. About your question, I think to make the sound louder you need...
Thanks for all the feedback! I re-wrote the code to use only 2 sharps so it seems to work well enough for my presentation. Eventually I will figure it out....
As I donīt have a scope, I changed the crystal for a new one but nothing changed. I configurated the contrast level of the LCD with a potentiometer but this...
I know this is going to sound obvious, but what type of LCD display is it? Do the pinouts match the HandyBoard correctly? You said that you can download the...
Hi, I recently purchased a Max 99 robot base (www.zagrosrobotics.com) for my robot experiments. I have enjoyed small robots but now I want a BIG one. So I...
Hi, I really HATE Basic Stamps because - from a programmers perspective - they are just too limited. However, the newer Basic Stamp type chips (BS2, BasicX,...
I mentioned this few weeks ago. I bought a small motorcyle battery (lead acid) for $2.00. You can use the HB to turn on and off (reverse) a relay that powered...
The LCD is correct. I tested it in another board and it worked, an I even tryed a new one in the HandyBoard but nothing. And the beep still plays in the second...
Hi, I can get this sensor to work well as a human detector, but I'm trying to use it solely as a fire/candle detector. I mounted the sensor on a servo to...
Hi, I am contemplating cutting a lead off of one (or more) Handy Board analog input lines. The problem is that some sensors don't like the pullup resistors on...
Nick, I had the same reservations about hacking up my HB at first too, I assure you that you won't regret cuting the resistor pack for the Sharp sensor. I...
Turned out to be a bad U1 on the expansion board. As I recall I blew a 74374 on the main board so I used one from the servos. Now that I wanted to test some...
Today I tested the board with the scope. The crystal is working fine, but the frequency of the wave at pin 5 of 68hc11 is not constant. And something very...
Thanks! I imagine this must be difficult for class rooms: class 1 writes some code and it works; class 2 cuts the resister pack; class 1 comes back next week...
There are those "short" sockets. I'm not sure how to describe them, but you often see them on old SCSI hard drives for the termination resistors.. They don't...
Befor I decided to cut the trace on my pull up's I simply used a 3904 transistor to pull the anlogs to ground. The analog output from the sharp connected to...
