Happy New Year! 2012 is here and I have some new code to celebrate the holiday!
The Dexter Industries dWifi sensor has opened up a whole new world for LEGO MINDSTORMS. For those of you who have looked at the sensor, you will notice it requires that a “newline” character (decimal 13). The dWifi also likes each byte to be sent individually. To cope with these requirements, I have posted a block that does all the work for you. As you can see from the screen capture on the right, there is a simple loop to send each byte (including the newline byte added to your string). The file is posted and is live now on the Files page of my blog. You can use the regular Set Speed and Read VIs that come with the RS485 2.0 download.
Stay tuned for more dWifi LabVIEW and NXT-G updates!
In celebration of the release of their new WiFi sensor, Dexter Industries has been blogging and posting example code of how to use it. While the code is written for RobotC, the same commands can be sent with the original RS485 block (or VIs) posted on the Files page. In support of this new sensor, I will be re-posting some of the examples using these blocks! You can head over to
