Gyro calls

2007-05-03T20:35:12+01:00

The example I use works for me. When I pick up the robot and tilt him, his arm moves in response to the gyro input.

Where did you learn the PEEK location for the gyro.
I wonder how much other information like this I am missing.

Gyro calls

I don't understand how this works, I couldn't make it work.

You are reading a pulse input from the Gyro using an analog input. Do you have the Gyro actually enabled ?

I would propose the following to see the Gyro working:

MOTOR G24
SPEED 10
GYROSET G6A,0,1,1,1,0,0
GYROSET G6D,0,1,1,1,0,0

GYRODIR G6A,0,0,0,0,0,0
GYRODIR G6D,0,0,0,0,0,0

GYROSENSE G6A,0,250,200,250,0,0
GYROSENSE G6D,0,250,200,250,0,0

gm:
DIM t AS BYTE
t = PEEK(1328)
t = t * 3
SERVO 12,t
GOTO gm

The location 1328 will have a value which is proportional to the Gyro angular velocity in the range 4 to 56. (1329..1331 for other gyro)

Here is some goddamn simple code to see what the gyro is doing. Please set the AD read to the AD channel you have the gyro input on.

This is part of the technique I use to get Takeshi to stop at boundries or solid objects.
Please bare in mind that this an infinate loop routine just to show the simplicity of an Gyro call.

DIM t AS BYTE
t = AD(5)
t = t + 90
