tc lego tutorial
TC Logo is programming software for the Lego #9750 "Interface A" 8-bit robot control hardware from 1987. The interface is working fine and I even tested some programs on it. Hi Evan,In 2014 I did find a picture of "LogoWriter Robotics" on the applemacintosh.se website in Sweden. Thank you for the research and archiving efforts. Site Statistics. The hardware can also be programmed in BASIC, Lego Lines, Logo II, and assembly. I even still have a set of motors from back then. Do you happen to own any of the listed software (Lines ot TC Logo) for the bbc micro or the pc? My interface A arrived today. And we had several people look at it. !I used each ][+, ][e and Enhanced ][e modes in the emulatorLinApple is supposed to be a port of AppleWin,so it should work there tooI get the splash screen and then pressed enter to get to the main screenSo it must be a Protected disk, right ?Dan. Finally after a couple of months of hard work (summer is the air traffic controllers nightmare ) I had some spare time to work on my 9750 interface and my BBC micro. It does have its own operating system so it's not a file based program but a disk based program ie it reads the sectors of the disk directly to obtain the code and data information. It's programmed in BASIC. Alex, Don't mention Assembly programming in front of Evan :) I've been trying to get him into that for too long, maybe next year.Some of my old robot projects from the 70s used relays. Good luck. I am sure you will find it very useful in your Lego control journey.https://archive.org/details/vintagelegoroboticsStay safe . ; Between us we own 27,884,951 sets worth at least US$842,650,290 and containing 8,292,192,368 pieces. Re: LEGO TC Logo It is indeed 74LS74, here is an image of one of my cards with more readable lettering: I have one of the Superproto boards and was thinking just the same thing -- I could try to wire up something on a bare prototype board, but a lot of the work appears to already be done for me on the Superproto board.

Type in 9750, 70288 or 70455 and you should see plenty of hits. Alex. And everything works perfectly. The 6522 has two 16-bit timers so maybe one timer is being used for time splicing and then the Apple II does the PWM counting. Basically you can buy the 12 way terminal plug blocks which you can cut into pieces or you can still get the original cables from BrickLink. In fish, parents' stressful experiences influence offspring behavior via epigenetic changes. I'm using a KIM-1 again. Google indicates you gave a similar talk at WoZfest a couple of years ago. As usual, have to find enough spare change to buy the other parts.Dan, Alex here's the video of my Kfest presentation. Alex. I have not used LEGO under AppleSoft yet however I did have a quick look at the routines and I agree that there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with them. Hi Dan. ! Everything is now saved on a 51/4 disc and runs great.

Alex, I found another alternative on Mouser and Digikey to make the connectors for these Lego cables.The come in a single female horizontal molex connectorAnd so you can arrange them on a 100mil grid on the pcb to build a matching 2 pin connectorPlace them in the rear of your project box along the edge of the pcb, so you can equip it for many more inputs and outputshttp://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/cinch-connectivity-solutions-johnson/105-1104-001/J578-ND/241123http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Johnson-Cinch-Connectivity-Solutions/105-1104-001/?qs=mXFFu1Tk4DUOhVNGiM8a1A%3D%3D, Alex,I'm having problems trying to read the *.do file in the 2nd disk image, Lego TC LogoI tried reading that with CiderPress and AppleCommander with luckFrom the error messages between them, Applecommander mentioned one possible reason might be this is a Protected diskDid you have any luck trying to read this with any viewer ?Dan, Alex,I didn't think of it beforeI just tried loading it on AppleWin and it loads fine ! It will run as a disk image on most, if not all Apple II emulators (it may have prerequisites like needing 128k but I'm not sure on that). All we do is write some Main code to read the Joystick Button to activate the motors. And the COUNTER command provides a Timing function to keep keep of elapsed time. We’ll cover topics such as what Electron is, the main process, browser processes and more.

I have setup this blog to document my Apple II project work and share it with the Apple II community. I would be interested in seeing the documentation that you were able to obtain that I wasn't unable to source. The SETPOWER instruction in LOGO controls the PWM waveform to the outputs pins (PortB 0 to PortB 5). - everything going thru the User Port.I see you had an alternate solution for the motor connectors. ; 11006 members have logged in in the last 24 hours, 24705 in the last 7 days, 39604 in the last month.

Also thank-you for adding the details here so that it may help someone else in the future. To find out you could decompile the LEGO TC Logo software or use a logic analyser to determine what is being sent to the 6522 chip by the Apple II. This is the Getting Started manual. I'm finding the reference manuals particularly interesting and inspiration for a Logo interface to modern robots. Great to see someone using the information from the blog. It starts page 170 in the pdf.We could run a single motor just fine and on any output port of the 9750.

Hi Dan,I have looked at the PWM signals on the output pins of the LEGO Interface A but I have not looked at the IO card in much detail. Hi Leo,For a PC solution, if you want to use the commercial software (LEGO Lines, TC LOGO Logo) then you will need to get an old PC with ISA slots otherwise if you want to write your own software for control then you could use your current PC with a USB to parallel connector or any of the hobby interface boards ie Arduino, Raspberry Pi, FX2LP module etc.For a BBC Micro solution you will need to make a cable that goes from the Interface A to the User port or Parallel port on your BBC Micro (I don't know which port is required by the commercial software). When the values get printed, everything looks fine, and we don't see where the code fouls up.So the code in their subroutines work fine with just one motor but not multiple motors. Twitch is the world`s leading video platform and community for gamers. Banana plugs, or keywords that i should use.

The search continues.I build a relay board for the Apple II (in anticipation for another LEGO show) to demonstrate how you would program the LEGO directly via assembler or basic and how it was done before the commercial packs became available ie before 1986 using relay technology and not using the board with the power transistors. So if we want to turn On one motor or use 2 motors to make the robot spin around, then we just use a specific value in the Poke statement. Hope that helps. (I found your slides at https://www.slideshare.net/roughana/legos-first-programmable-product.) I supposed finding the original parts for this might be very difficult. That is six PWM ports.
