Re: NXT / problem with 2 colour sensors

I've been testing for a couple of hours this evening, and I've concluded that both sensors work, and simultaneously as well. I've made a little state machine with nested conditions, to make 4 states in total. (All that within an infinite loop). If the only thing in the states is a Display Block (dis...

NXT / problem with 2 colour sensors

Hi, My FLL team is running into a problem: We're trying to make a linefollower, with 2 colour sensors. When both see White, the robot goes straight on. When one of them sees Black, the robot turns. This all worked fine. But then, well, I don't know what happened. All of a sudden only one colour sens...

Re: NXT forgets its firmware

The mail is in. Bit dissapointing; it only told me how to reset / download firmware, which I already knew.
I'll phone them again, maybe later today, maybe monday (got to go and teach kids about Mindstorms / robotics first...)

Re: NXT forgets its firmware

:?
Short lived delight... Once I turned it off, the firmware was gone again. Can still download it, though.
Eagerly watching my mailbox....

Re: NXT forgets its firmware

I didn't get the e-mail yesterday, so I called again today. Apperently something went wrong with the mail, so she's sending it again. In the meantime, I tried downloading the firmware again, with a fresh (new) accupack, a reset (with a paperclip in the pinhole under the USB connection on the NXT) an...

NXT forgets its firmware

Hi all, I've got an NXT that 'forgets' its firmware; when I downloaded the firmware, it worked fine. I removed the batteries (needed them for another NXT) Then, the next day, when I turn it on, it maded that hissing-ticking sound indicating it is waiting for a firmware download. It worked fine again...
