10:05.25scanlineholy cow
10:05.43scanlinethe setup I have now uses about 100ma continuous current, and who knows how much peak...
10:05.55scanlineusing a -yellow- LED that's not even pointed at the receiver, I get a signal
10:07.36scanlinethis will definitely do the trick
10:08.09scanlinewow.. you can see the LED glow very faintly red while it's transmitting
10:08.21scanlineand my eye hurts...
10:08.26scanline:)
10:13.06captain_proton=)
10:14.04captain_protonhrm
10:14.21scanlinethis isn't using anything to limit the current other than the internal resistance of the pic and the transistor :)
10:14.35scanlineif we find it uses too much battery power we can cut down on the duty cycle
10:15.29captain_protonwow...
10:15.39captain_protoni could see it update the screen in mid-refresh now
10:15.55captain_protonfor some reason i'm not recieving any light sensor signals when flashing the screen
10:16.28scanlinetried varying the length of the flash?
10:16.34captain_protonyeah
10:16.48captain_protonright now i've got a 100usec delay while its white
10:17.03captain_protoni tried 1500 earlier
10:17.09captain_protonperhaps i'll try it at 30fps
10:17.12scanlinetry more like 30ms
10:17.17scanlineit was designed for TV, after all
10:18.12captain_protonstill no love
10:18.13scanlineif we understood the sensor board better there might be a resistor or capacitor we could tweak to change the flash length it detects best
10:18.16captain_protonat 300ms
10:18.25scanlinewell, that might be too long
10:18.38captain_protonerr
10:18.40scanlinethere's probably a range of lengths it will accept
10:19.27captain_protonwell i think its bedtime for me
10:19.36scanlineok
10:19.50scanlineI might as well go to bed too then, I hate soldering in the dark :P
10:20.04scanlineyou have to see how bright this transmitter is though
10:29.15captain_protonscanline: you should find the timing on your flasher
10:29.19captain_protonbecause we know that works

21:09.53TDquick c question, as #c is quiet....
21:10.15TDif i  have a pointer to uint var, is !var == true when the pointer == null?
21:10.55XentacTD: good question
21:11.03Xentacscanline probably knows though
21:11.47Xentacmy suggestion would be to write a little test program ;o)
21:11.50Xentacand then tell me the answer...
21:14.00TDapparently it does
21:14.04TDnot very clear though is it
21:14.32Xentacso the ! is evaluated on the pointer, instead of on the * of the pointer
21:14.42Xentacthat's what I figured, but I wasn't sure
21:14.50TDyeah
21:14.58TD!null == true i guess
21:15.06TDi'm a c newbie
21:15.09Xentacyeah, it is
21:15.25Xentacnull, in every case that I know of, is essentially 0
21:16.37njs#define NULL (void*)0
21:17.06njsthe only reason to use NULL instead of 0 is to possibly avoid some casting warnings; they're both 0.
21:19.42njsit's perfectly clear; pointers are really just integers, and like all integers, are true when non-zero, false when zero.
21:22.26fileAccess to brain denied.
21:22.34fileHigher level brain functions suspended.
21:25.59TDwhat's the command to break into the debugger?
21:26.34TDnjs: yeah, i'm used to object pascal where nil was an explicit type
21:26.39TDor at least, you never bothered casting it
21:27.38njsTD: yeah, I'm not sure how necessary it actually is to use NULL in modern C; I know that in C++, it's explicitly discouraged (you should just write 0 instead).
21:27.55TDhmm
