Yes, you can use the IntelliBrain-Bot with a Bluetooth wireless adapter attached to either or both of the serial ports. We have had good results with products...
You could always tack on one of these and control it with a UART: http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=713 -- Don French ... From:...
Hi Don, The printChar routine enables the calling thread to attempt to print a character to the LCD screen without waiting if the LCD hardware is busy. If the...
Ah! There it was, right in the Javadoc. I guess I missed it because all the other LCD display classes I am familiar with do that kind of readiness-checking...
Oops, it is not going to be that easy to subclass Display. The problem is that you can't subclass Display without implementing printChar( ) because for some...
Hi everyone. i keep getting these semantic errors and i have tried to fix them in vain can anyone tell me what is wrong. Found 1 semantic error compiling...
I downloaded a program to flash for the first time and now I can't download a new version of the program! RoboJDE never sees the Intellibrain (Load is grayed...
Don, Try the following: 1. Turn the robot off and disconnect the serial cable. 2. Close and restart RoboJDE. 3. Adjust the baud rate of the robot to match the...
You must have missed a step because after step 4, the robot is off and never turned back on before step 8 when you say to turn it off. And the Load button...
Don, I just loaded a board with a program that grabs COM1 and was set to automatically run. The previous test I tried was without the COM1 twist. I am able...
Sorry, this does not work for me. Let me step you through exactly what happens. After step 6a, I do see the message: RoboJDE v1.2.2r1 Ready - Flash and the...
Don, Your description makes it sound as though it is attempting to load to RAM, not flash. Please make sure you have set the load target to flash (step 6)....
Recently my students and I have been having quite a bit of trouble with the RoboJDE software. Two main issues. One, I often get errors like the following ...
Arturo, This sounds like the "Compile when building and loading" setting in the project's properties has been unchecked. If you see the problem again, please...
My robot has a separate editor that creates a behavior profile and downloads to the EEPROM. When the robot starts it loads this data from the EEPROM. This has...
Joe, The problem is most likely that you are overruning the receive buffering on the serial port. Both serial ports on the IntelliBrain have 64 bytes of...
... That's what I wanted to confirm! ... This is what I'll do since the data stream very rarely changes in size. ... A bit overkill for this, BUT it is a nice...
I'm trying to determine if the RoboJDE compiler is particular about polymorphism or I'm just missing something. I'm guessing it's the latter. Basically what...
The problem is exactly what the error message told you. Thread has no method named toggle. ... From: arturuong To: intellibrain@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...
To be a bit wordier, SeaCreature has the swim method, all of the classes that extend it will have the swim method. Thread does not have a toggle. All of your...
Several users have reported the RoboJDE installation fails on Windows Vista. Although Windows Vista is not officially supported, users have reported that the...
The voltage levels that I measure on the COM2 port pins, starting from the one next to the ground pin are the following, relative to the ground pin: 6.0, 0,...
Hi Don, The levels on COM2 are RS-232, not TTL. The pinout, from the edge of the board in is Ground, +6V, IntelliBrain Rx, IntelliBrain Tx. The power pin is...
To wrap up this disucssion... It's tricky to download a program to the IntelliBrain controller if it has a program loaded in flash that is (1) set to run...
Ok, thanks for that information. So, I guess it is impossible to use COM2 with the RF modem (XBee on an AppBee adapter card), as I was attempting to do,...
I am having difficulty using XBee with the Intellibrain 2. Probably it is something I am doing wrong. I wonder if anyone else has experience with this RF...
