Add more butons is allways a good option. What about to use the other PDA´s butons to send orders like the actual program do with the cursors?

I like the idea of background colours and fonts to differentiate the functions.

I have already been asked to do a tabbed interface to allow more than 27 buttons in the app. and I want to try and get a better editor for the button definitions, maybe a more graphical one.

mmm... really at this moment the aplication´s functions are OK to manage the RN at the small PDA screen, maybe the option of change the colour of any button and his fount would be good to differentiate faster between attacks and movements for example.

What are your suggestions to make this program better?

Regards

Excellent - am glad it is working for you. Do let me know if you have any suggestions as I am considering a full re-write of the app between now and the new year.

Already have a few suggestions but would be happy to look at anything you think is lacking

Hi Again,

Think this is the right one - it has a text box for the COM port rather than an enumerated list so will let you enter any port you like so in your case that would be COM6.

Am pretty sure this is the right code but as I always say I can't test every variations so please backup before installing.

Thanks

Now I have more question, because I want to control it with my PDA in WM2005, I try the program for PPC2003 and doesnt work because it only left me to select the comport nº 3, and my exit port at the PDA is nº 6. How can I controll the RN-1 with the PDA? There is some forms to control it using the PC?

Hi,

I had the same issue when I advanced to WM2005 but have altered the code for the app to allow any com port to be manually typed in rather than it just being the list. Give me a day or two and I'll dig it out and post it for you.

hi again! before a few months inmerse in other kind of projects I start "playing" again with my RN1!

Now I´m triying to get continous movements like run and turn without stops using the standart IR, but I cant program it to work... maybe my poor programing level is the fault....

When RN1 reads the IR signals allways kill the motion for a moment...

If I use a BlueSmirf could be posible to get continous movements?

Hi

Yes I think it would be easier with Bluetooth as the bluetooth module I am using buffers incoming commands (its a bluesmirf). There is a bit about the code for continuous walking here http://www.bipedrobots.co.uk/rnindex.aspx?id=310 that may help

Pev, that does help, thank you. I got the IBM ThinkPad for Christmas! The wireless had problems and kept disconnecting. Once the wireless drivers were downloaded and reinstalled, the problem disappeared. Now it seems to have a reception problem. The received signal is reported by the software as weak. Maybe the antenna is internally disconnected. I'll need to investigate. My goal is still a pin-for-pin compatible serial RS-232 cable replacement using wireless bluetooth.

Hi All,

I have used both built in bluetooth in my PDA to Bluesmirf and MSI and ActionTec bluetooth dongles on a laptop and the built in Bluetooth on my Samsung Q1 - all with no problems.

Hope this helps

LOL, don't tell me that old myth is still being debated?
