Newbie question about PEEK function

Well, after downloading 2.5.61, it compiles for me as well. I guess the CD version was a few revisions behind. Thanks a lot for your patience...this is why I'm a noob, I guess .

I am using version 2.5.61, and it compiles OK. What version are you using (check help-about).

B should be a BYTE

Newbie question about PEEK function

Here is the code I'm trying to test with:

DIM B AS INTEGER
DIM A AS INTEGER

'== motor diretion setting ======================
DIR G6A,1,0,0,1,0,0
DIR G6B,1,1,1,1,1,1
DIR G6C,0,0,0,0,0,0
DIR G6D,0,1,1,0,1,0

'== motor start position read ===================
GETMOTORSET G6A,1,1,1,1,1,0
GETMOTORSET G6B,1,1,1,0,0,0
GETMOTORSET G6C,1,1,1,0,0,0
GETMOTORSET G6D,1,1,1,1,1,0
GYROSET G6A,0,1,0,0,0,0
GYROSET G6D,0,1,0,0,0,0
GYRODIR G6A,1,1,1,1,1,1
GYRODIR G6D,0,1,0,0,0,0
GYROSENSE G6A,0,70,0,0,0,0
GYROSENSE G6D,0,70,0,0,0,0

SPEED 5

'== motor power on =============================
MOTOR G24

GOSUB standard_pose

'================================================
MAIN:

'GOSUB transmit_start
GOSUB transmit_data
'GOSUB transmit_done
GOTO MAIN
'================================================

transmit_data:
A=1328
B=PEEK(A)
ETX 57600, B
RETURN

'================================================

standard_pose:

MOVE G6A,100, 80, 145, 93, 100, 100
MOVE G6D,100, 80, 145, 93, 100, 100
MOVE G6B,100, 30, 80, 100, 100, 100
MOVE G6C,100, 30, 80, 100, 100, 100
WAIT

RETURN
'================================================

The red highlighted text is the statement giving me trouble. I'm running RoboBasic 2.5 (English), and the compile command returns an "[Assign(=)]Can't use integer type" error.

There is no problem to PEEK all the RAM locations. And your address is correct

Can you post our code, so we can have a look at your problem ?

Newbie question about PEEK function

2008-02-18T21:20:48+01:00

Hi everyone,

I just got a Robonova, and I'm evaluating it for my adviser as a possible soccer-playing robot for our school. I've been trying implement real-time control by sending data over serial to a PC, and having the PC respond with a set of servo positions.

My question is, how do I PEEK the RAM location where the gyro data is stored? One of the topics mentioned that it was stored at 1328-1331, but RoboBasic won't let me PEEK any ram location above 255.

If anybody has done this or can offer any insight, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
