 SMUX problem with touch sensorI have a simple task: to use two touch sensors with the Hitechnic SMUX. But when I try to test the SMUX with the "lego-touch-SMUX-test1.c", it doesn't work properly. I connect a touch sensor to port 1 of SMUX, which is connected to port 1 of NXT. But the display remains "ACTIVE" and never changes. The LEDs on the SMUX are normal. Can you suggest any possible reasons for this?
Finally I turn to use the TMUX instead of the SMUX to do my job. But I wanna know the SMUX's problem. |

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor Well, I'm using 3.54... But I see that your said 3.55B2 is a beta version. Is it reliable enough?

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor I've been using it for months. It's a lot more reliable than 3.54. Later today there will be an announcement for 3.59.0, you may want to wait for that one. It's got a LOT of fixes.

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor I am just waiting for the complete changelog before I announce it. The trouble is, the devs are just terrible slackers

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor Shall I uninstall the old version before installing this one? What about the licence?

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor Do a total uninstall, and clear out any files that may be left in the programs folder for ROBOTC. Then install 3.59.0
Your license will work just fine, it'll remain activated. = Xander _________________ | Professional Conduit of Reasonableness | (Title bestowed upon on the 8th day of November, 2013) | My Blog: I'd Rather Be Building Robots | ROBOTC 3rd Party Driver Suite: [Project Page] |

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor Doesn't the Touch Sensor Mux do that too?

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor The TouchMux is for Touch Sensors only, it's a completely analogue sensor. The Sensor MUX is a more complicated sensor.

Re: SMUX problem with touch sensor I know that. He is using Touch Sensors though, right?
