Robonova tilt sensor

[saview]

I'm sure this has been posted somewhere, I just cant find it. I've just installed the tilt sensor into AD0, and pasted the exact code that is found on the instructions. But nothing is happening when i place him down. Not sure what I have missed. Any help would be appreciated.
robot_tilt:
A = AD(0)
IF A > 250 THEN RETURN

IF A <30> 200 THEN GOTO tilt_high

RETURN
tilt_low:
A = AD(0)
'IF A < 30 THEN GOTO forward_standup
IF A < 30 THEN GOTO backward_standup
RETURN
tilt_high:
A = AD(0)
'IF A > 200 THEN GOTO backward_standup
IF A > 200 THEN GOTO forward_standup
RETURN

I suppose you forgot to call "robot_tilt" routine from the main cycle.

I got mine on AD2.


robot_tilt:
A = AD(2)
IF A > 250 THEN RETURN

IF A <30> 200 THEN GOTO tilt_high

RETURN
tilt_low:
A = AD(2)
'IF A < 30 THEN GOTO forward_standup
IF A < 30 THEN GOTO backward_standup
RETURN
tilt_high:
A = AD(2)
'IF A > 200 THEN GOTO backward_standup
IF A > 200 THEN GOTO forward_standup
RETURN

Dont forget to add...

GOSUB robot_tilt

I got mine after the battery check...

MAIN:
GOSUB robot_voltage
GOSUB robot_tilt

Good luck

[saview]

Thanks! the GOSUB ROBOT_TILT worked. but right now it works when he is on his back. Am i also supposed to add DIM A AS INTEGER also? the DIM A AS BYTE is already shown.

Maybe I am missing something.
How would you ever get to tilt_low ?

[badlands]

Hmmm.. well spotted i-Bot.
The above code works for me but i can see it doesnt seem right. I have been hacking around a bit with my default code.

Here is how it started b4 i messed...


robot_tilt:
A = AD(2)
IF A > 250 THEN RETURN

IF A <30> 200 THEN GOTO tilt_high

RETURN
tilt_low:
A = AD(2)
'IF A < 30 THEN GOTO forward_standup
IF A < 30 THEN GOTO backward_standup
RETURN
tilt_high:
A = AD(2)
'IF A > 200 THEN GOTO backward_standup
IF A > 200 THEN GOTO forward_standup
RETURN

[badlands]

Got it - i needed to disable a few options in this post to get a clean C&P.

hehe...

Sorry - that should work now.

[saview]

will that solve the problem of him not standing up from his belly, right now he is only standing up when placed on his back.

[badlands]

Is yout tilt sensor mounted correctly?

[saview]

I installed it exactly like the instructions show.
http://www.superrobotica.com/download/R ... sensor.pdf

I just dont know if i should have added DIM A AS INTEGER. like step 2 is showing..

[badlands]

Hmmm... i havent got DIM A AS INTEGER at all in my code.

??

[badlands]

Hmm... so he isnt getting to the tilt_high sub routine.

Try lowering the threshold:

IF A > 150 THEN GOTO tilt_high

Remember it appears twice in the sub routine.

[saview]

i tried lowering the threshold, He still wont get up from his belly. Works perfectly while on his back. Maybe something is wrong with the sensor?

[Kilroym42]

where did you get the tilt sensor?
I'm having a hard time finding it in the usa.

[saview]

I was using bauermech's kung-fu script and reverted to the origional script from the CD and now its working like it should, but when if i change it back to the kung-fu, it only works on its back.. I got the sensor from robosavvy. The USA is pretty disappointing when it comes to supplying Robonova parts.
