What has this topic to do with "RoboPro/computing/software" beside of the nickname?

A good choice. I am sure that your son will have a very good time with learning and developing skills about work flow oriented problem analyses, and program design. From the examples, work flow oriented programming looks very easy but uses it to create new programs is more difficult: -) And how to d...

PWM is a high frequency alternate stream of 9V pulse. A motor or a multi meter works as a low band filter. (integrator) Because of this filter it looks like that you have input voltage control. However you only have limitation in power because of the limitation of the maximum current that the interf...

With the RoboInterface family (RoboInt, Extension standalone, RoboConnection Box) there is no real limitation. The USB sub ID can be program into the floash memory. The capacity of the USB bus will be the bottle neck (is documented in the manual). The FtLib can manage more than one connection (mix R...

To pre-process digital signals, people are making very often use of the so called DSP microcontrollers. For example the DsPIC30 and DsPIC33 series ( www.MicroChip.com ). Beside this hardware, there is also a DSP library with suitable functions, like filters etc. There exist a lot of books about this...

In the online mode it is possible to use C, C++ or the .NET framework dialects to develop programs for the Robo family (based on the FtLib) or the TX-C (based on the FtMscLib). And this even event based. The texttual program languages or dialects will not be the problem. The main problem will be: th...

Welcome to the world of MS-RDS. First of all, all the official Microsoft documentation about MS-RDS is only available in English. For the moment all the additional documentation about the Ft16Servcie and FtTxService is also done in English. There exist no FT-buttons in MS-RDS. In MS-RDS VPL you are ...

I like it!
Nice mathimatical description in the linked document.
Ans also a nice overview of different hardware components.

Surprenant cette solution.
Le monde de RoboPRo est merveilleux.

This depends how you define the power of a motor. In case you are interested of the mechanical power of motor, you must measure the mechanical Power at the side of the axe, the torque. For example: how much weight could the motor lift in 60 sec over 1 meter. Take a look in a nice German mechanical m...

The revolutions per minute and the current that a motor will consume, is depending on the load. To much load will lead to a lower level of RPM and a higher current level. Because load [W] =U [V] x I [A], a heave load could demage this type of motors. Pay attention when you are using the PWM (power l...

Bien fait. Nice to see that a English web site about fischertechnik is very populair in a lot of countries. Malheureusement on n’a pas une statistique comparable d’un site en langage Français. Une expérience avec un site Français comparable avec ton site peut être intéressante pour voir l’intérêt du...

Hi Winki First of all see: http://forum.ftcommunity.de/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=86 The original FT service in MS-RDS version 1 , 1.5 and 2 are the same and they are very weak and are containing some very essential bugs.This version is still available but move by Microsoft to the Microsoft CodePlex web si...

Because of question about the Ft16Service for the Robo interface series and the FtTxService for the TX-C : The Ft16Service for MS-RDS 2008 R2 is available on my website (see the fischertechnik webside under MS-RDS, link to Carel stuff) The Ft16Service for MS-RDS 2008 R3 is ready. The FtTxService is ...

A motor output (M1..M4) on the TXC brick is a full bridge output. The GND is not in use. See these two picture. Note: These picture are only an ilustration of a full bridge and they are not showing the real implemantation in the fischertechnik interfaces. In the picture, the green motor has been con...

Hi all, First of all: -) I am talking about the Computing part. -) I am not saying that everything must be in the English language, certainly not. Languages: I am talking about the documentation of software. So the structure and subjects are fixed. Behind a subject (for the content) you can work wit...

There is a more fundamental problem: RoboPro offers not the possibility for experience users to add visual programming elements. There is no mechanism,template structure and (cross) compiler support that give support to extend the library with low level written elements. Only the subprogram mechanis...
