Re: Is this possible?

They can all talk and listen, but if more than one talks at the same time, no one can hear anything. Umm, isn't that what Andy and I already said here and here ? - Xander Yes your right, i am sorry, i did not realise there were a page two and just answered directly to the best of my knowledge. Have...

Re: Is this possible?

EDIT: I did not realise there were a page two and simply repeated some info already given. Sorry for spamming. So, you're saying I can do something like this: [] = NXT -- = RS-485 __ = BT []-----[]_____[]------[]______[]--------[]_____[]-------[] The only problem with that approach is that each NXT ...

Re: Educational VS Retail

I do not agree with that. I guess the educational version is fine for, well education, but the set does not contain instructions and parts for more challenging robots. For most home users I would suggest buying the retail version. I think it is more fun for most. The educational kit does not include...

Re: List of errors

You might be right. I just took a look at the nxc tutorial and it seams to be quite good. Maybe suggesting learning java is a bit overkill, but i would like to point out that the book above IS a great place to learn programming. Not so much because of the choice of language but because it is a well ...

Re: List of errors

I am not sure what your mean with your last reply, but you do not think you are learning anything? Believe me, you are! But learning to program requires a bit of patience. It requires you to think in a certain way and understand what is actually going on. It is also the reason why no one can give yo...

Re: Ok, time to upgrade - help.

It really depends of your programming experience (if any?) and computer skills in general. NXC is probably the best bet, especially because the programming environment (the program your are using to write your code with) is really nice and easy to use. You can check out this website: http://bricxcc....

Enhanced firmware: missing keypress/system sounds, why?

Hi. (Note: I know this is probably a question targeted directly at John Hansen, but I wan't buckle him with mails about this kind of stuff, so I leave it here for him (or anyone else) to answer) I have used the enhanced firmware for about a year now and I have noticed that the system-sounds/button p...

Re: Lego color sensor api for osek? Any datasheet available?

Thank you very much for the great replies. Hi, The Lego color sensor does not use i2c, nor as far as I know is there any data sheet available. It is a rather odd sensor using a combination of a bit banged serial protocol on the digital I/O lines and being the only sensor I know of that uses the AT91...

Lego color sensor api for osek? Any datasheet available?

Hi one of the other students would like to use the lego color sensor for a nxt-osek project. However a api does not seam to be available. Anyone knowing of a third-part api for this sensor? My first thought was, what the heck. I will make it myself! (has never tried that before), but after been thro...
