  1. It looks like you're using 9V motors but 9750 only outputs 4ish volts. What am I missing?
  2. LOL - Cray. Juuuuuuuuust a bit overkill. It would be cool to see 9750 interfaced to that pocket computer! :) @Gunners TekZone in case you haven't seen it already, here is a video I made about the current 9767 options:
  3. @Gunners TekZone here is the schematic: https://www.brickhacks.com/9767.php
  4. You're welcome. A few weeks ago I happened to see on Facebook Marketplace that someone a couple of hours from me was selling a massive haul of Dacta sets. He wanted a substantial sum. We negotiated a deal and I drove out there. I don't need most of the sets (so I'm trying to sell them: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/forums/topic/212437-fs-several-early-dacta-sets/) ... mostly I was willing to lay out the money because his stash of rare Lego educational manuals was overwhelming.
  5. I recently acquired several Control Lab teacher's manuals that are not scanned anywhere. So I am rectifying this. :) It's going to take a couple of months. Michael Mulhern (known in the Apple II community) is going to do the scanning on our behalf. Then it goes here: https://archive.org/details/vintagelegorobotics
  6. Yes. https://archive.org/details/lego_c64_manual_basic_comal/mode/2up -- starting on page 5.
  7. Archive.org's browser emulation can not connect to physical hardware. I confirmed this with Jason Scott, who built the emulator.
  8. I rescued a large amount of Control Lab stuff last weekend. I was digging through it and found (surprise!) 5.25 Apple II LogoWriter Robotics. LOL I think it's hysterical to find that in the wild NOW after we all just got it a few months ago.
  9. I rescued a large amount of Control Lab sets last weekend. It included the Intelligent House disk (for Mac) so I'll see about archiving that one.
  10. This is just a heads-up to anyone who might be interested: there's now another option for fans of Interface A (1093/9750) to communicate, in the form of a Facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/legointerfacea/. The group is not designed to draw anyone away from Eurobricks (I like it here!), just to offer an additional choice for people who tend to linger on social media.
  11. Control Lab also has a DOS version. I know about the serial approach ... "Do you byte, when I knock?" ... "Just a bit, off the block" ... a friend helped make that connection to 9751 in QBASIC. Still, I'd like to know about the underlying software. Maybe it's buried in some Control Lab manual. I will look someday.
  12. I know there are many software choices for operating 9751 Control Lab -- just as there are for 9750 Control Center -- but I wasn't sure which language is underneath the actual Lego Control Lab application. Is it still Logo? The irony of finally obtaining LogoWriter Robotics is that I have no intention of using it! I'm sticking with my favorite, good old BASIC.
