I'm running a Pontech SV203B as my controller on an "autonomous" RC car. The track has walls on it barely wider than the car. It mechanically follows them,...
You've got a couple of programming challenges ahead of you, but it sounds like you're on the right track (pun intended). When checking the "I've got air"...
Thanks for the reply Steve. The < or > 128 idea is solid, and we could tie the A/D line to gnd with a 100K resistor if needed to control drift. I followed your...

Programming the Pontech SV203B, as easy as 1-2-3! Thanks Steve! Now that you mentioned it, I do remember a lack of = signs in my delay commands on my "real"...
Yup, I think you've got it. For some reason I thought there was a checkbox in SBC, but I was wrong - so yes, you merely do the SVBAS thing to create the hex...
The practice session went pretty well today, although we still don't have autostart working correctly. So far we've only been able to get it to work...
Nice workaround. I don't think I've ever had occasion to use autorun, other than just hacking around with it. The program I run most of the time I just start...
That was a fast three weaks, but I managed to get my robot walking in time for the science fair. I had a whole two hours left over for sleeping. The robot...

Abbi, Once you send the AD(n)<13> where n is the channel, you just wait until you have a chr$(10) (linefeed) comm event back. There's an example in the files...

Very cool. The HBC101 has an add on board that would allow logging the trainer port output of a FUTUBA flight transmitter (with properly written PC software)....
Yeah, I forgot the SV203 wasn't going to be able to read in the servo signals. I could probably just use one of those laptop->oscope programs that utilizes a...
