Dear Claude,
I tried to send a direct e-mail to you but it was returned. I am working on my
next art making robot and Eriks Plotter vis are just what I need to adapt to
my software. I will be using a balancing mobile as the plotter.
May you send me the vi library for Eriks Plotter to my e-mail? tom@tomlohre.com
It would be just the thing to keep me focused on my problems.

I completely missed your question. Sorry about that. But I see that you found
help. Great!

I am working on recreating Vision Center vi in RoboLab 4.9.
Currently my Vision Center vi: Threshold, MorphOpen, MorphClose,
MorphProperOpen, MorphProperClose, MorphThin and Invert causes a clear outline
in the build window.
When I try to recreate it in RoboLab, I have trouble figuring out if, it is
truly binary. When I get to the point of inserting the Morph.vi's the resulting
image blacks out. Sometimes it is there but faintly. Below are both vis
although I do not know the extension of the Vision Center Command. Ultimately, I
will address the outline in the image and have the Lego motors draw it in
pencil. The outline created in Vision Center Build Window needs to be my working
image. At this point, it can only be exported out of Vision Center Build by
right clicking on the image. Therefore, I must recreate Vision Center in
RoboLab.

vi's used:

I don't know for certain but I would be a bit surprised if Robolab works with
the Spybot bricks. There would have to have been a new release with
modifications specifically made to support the Spybot. Searching these
newsgroups suggests that support for the Spybot was never added to Robolab.
http://news.lugnet.com/robotics/?n=23159
NQC, on the other hand, includes full support for programming the Spybot and API
functions designed specifically to take advantage of all the capabilities
specific to the Spybot brick.

I'm not sure if MacNQC was updated with all the Spybot support but I think it
was. The BricxCC help files or the latest NQC Guide PDF file are probably your
best bet for learning what API functions can be used with the Spybot and how to
control its motors and sensors. BricxCC includes several small programs for the
Spybot written in NQC. BricxCC also supports programming the Spybot in LASM and
MindScript if you want to try something other than NQC.

The Spybot firmware is onboard the brick permanently and it cannot be replaced.
There is no need (or ability) to download a firmware to the Spybot bricks.

No language war intended, but for now I'd rather use Robolab.
That said, if I change my mind I'd appreciate some tips on using MacNQC with
Spybotics. Most of the stuff that I've seen on the web talks about using the
regular RCX stuff. One of my biggest questions is whether I need to download
firmware from the SDK to the Spybotics controller. All the stuff I see talks
about getting the firmware from the Mindstroms SDK for the Mac but the Lego
Mindstorms web pages for that SDK are long gone. I've downloded stuff from the
program that comes with Spybotics. Is that sufficient?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know if RoboLab will work with Spybotics, but if you have prior
programming experience NQC may be a better option. It works great with
Spybotics.

Does anyone have any experience using Robolab with a Spybotics kit? I just got
a couple of old Spybotics kits for my son this past Christmas and would love to
program them with him using Robolab. I have lots of programming experience,
although I am new to Robolab, Spybotics and robotics in general. Any tips or
links to useful information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I don't mean the duration, not hysteresis.

Subject: multiplex 2 touch sensors on a single RCX port
I have these 2 touch sensors multiplexing on the same input port. Their raw
values are 47 and 39. I tried to set up 2 separate events, one for the
range of 45 to 50 and another one for 35 to 40. However, the one for the
lower feedback often set off the higher value range event instead. I set the
hysteresis to .5 or even one second, it does not seem to help. Suggestion?
