Hi,

I made a compilation video of the convention: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8c6-AMyUkc

Thank you! Always handy to have a spare battery...

Hi,

Since recently, I find that the date on my TXT controller is set back to 01-01-2000 after power on, so I think a battery has gone empty. Should I send the controller for battery replacement or can I fix this myself?

Hi, For some time I've been using Python on the TXT now, and with the accessibility of the camera there seems to be a problem. I've written a piece of code where I take a picture at several moments, 4 in total. Since it's a riding model, the pictures should all be different and they're all the same....

Hi, I have followed this discussion with great interest. I've been busy with Linux since 1997, and since then I have done quite a few (educational) projects for which I had to build my own kernel. Although I would love to be independent from ft as far as the kernel goes, the firmware afaik is not in...

Hi,

I'm very curious about this problem since I've noticed that my TXT controller/robot (bought in 2015) also has a diversion from a straight line soon after starting.

hvn

Hi,

Thank you for pointing this out. This means that I will have to use a RoboIOExtention if I want to continue...

Hi,

I now notice that I made a small (but significant) mistake: I accidentally put a space between + and %d%m%Y. Without that space I'm getting the correct result: 10022016

hvn

Thanks. Will have to wait then.

Hi,

I'm trying to get the date printed on the TXT but this format, which works on Ubuntu and gives e.g. 05022016, gives 'invalid date '%d%m%Y'. How can I get this date correctly on the TXT ?

Thanks,

hvn

Problem solved. sshd wasn't running on the other computer and then ufw firewall blocked incoming ssh and therefor also scp.

Hi,

I'm trying to scp (secure copy) from the TXT to another (Linux) computer but after a long time waiting I get "connection timed out". Using scp to the TXT is no problem. I checked the firewall which is ok. What might be the cause of the scp failing ?

Thanks,

Hi,

Thank you for your answers. Unfortunately, the motors have to be able to operate at the same time. Otherwise, great ideas.

Hi, Using a RoboInterface, I'm trying to control 2 motors with just O1, O2 and O4 available. O1 and O2 are for red/green of 1 motor, which (of course) works. After connecting the 2nd motor (combining either green or red), despite programming it only works in 1 direction. Unless I reverse the connect...

Hi,

To my surprise and dismay I managed to break a chain link 128659 at 1 side on the place where the hook begins. Looking at the price of € 0,20 and s/h, it's hardly worth to order a replacement so instead I'm thinking of using glue to fix it. If any, with what glue would this work?

Hi Torsten,

Thank you for all your work.
So far I can't find the new version 0.6 in the Download section. Does it still have to be approved ?

hvn

Hi,

Thank you. I'll wait for your follow up and look forward to camera support.

hvn

Hi, After successfully using Python for quite some time, today it started going wrong. Not constantly, but often. In this video I made you can see what happens on screen and on the TXT: https://youtu.be/nlXpsAMvl2g. For clarity, this is the error I get on screen: Connected to TX2013 version 0x402030...

ft,

Ok, email is sent.
