Hi, i used that technique for a layout I had shown on two conventions for totally four days, no problems at all. The sound comes from Windows Media Player, which I called from your global code.

Hi, and here it is: or take a look at youtube (2:20 min), turn your speakers on.... https://youtu.be/hTbc5HZRg7E It's quite different, but shows how powerful the software really is.

Hi all, I just made a very very small test-layout to do some testing with the automation software "The Lego Train Project". Please don't hesitate to turn your speakers on, especially when train is running Have a look and enjoy! (2:20 min, (sorry, don't kow how to embed the video here) https://youtu.be/hTbc5HZRg7E Here you'll find software, developer and discussion... https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/169318-control-all-your-powered-up-power-function-sbrick-devices-with-a-single-software/

That is amazing!

Hi, seems to me so. What about your setup, is it possible for you get "black" triggered in any test condition? (which here is just a black tile and the sensor) If not so, in the moment it's a little bit useless to add all these colors to the event-dropbox if they never trigger With my EV3 I often use the RGB-values to define the colors myself. BTW: V.09 shows still 0.8 in the "propetries" menu...

There is no light, and it must independent from light. Sensor always says "BLACK" when it ist black, there's no problem with that.

It's not really confused, only the combination of distance and color is tricky (BTW: white isn't a color too, but works brilliant, due to reflecting)

yes, I see, but if it's not importtant for others I will stay with "red", which works fine, as you recommended. As the distance between sensor and object in my case ist always constant that "Partial" might be more important to users. My programm is runnning, so I'll send same pictures maybe tomorrow. Many thanks for your support.

the log ist showing "NONE" or "BLACK", so the color is recognized properly within your program, have a look: HUB NO.4 - Distance: 15 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 13,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 2 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 15 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 13,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 10,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 6 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 7,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 15 Color: 255(NONE) -> Partial: 0 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 13,5 Color: 255(NONE) -> Partial: 0 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 7,5 Color: 255(NONE) -> Partial: 0 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 6 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 0 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 4,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 3 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 1,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 1 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 1,5 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 2 HUB NO.4 - Distance: 0 Color: 0(BLACK) -> Partial: 3

I've two bricks here, it is definitely BT but not BLE You should find infos in the mindstorms communication developer kit. The "problem" is, that your log shows "BLACK", but is never(!) triggered. Thats all ;-) I just liked to do something when "BLACK", all others colours or values I don't care.

Yes, sure. But applications are different. Its a wild flickering of colors., as you say, but I'm absolutely not interested in that and ignore them all, no events for that. Only one single event: BLACK! And this is shown in the log very clear, and even if close to the sensor (2-3mm) and everything is fixed, so nothing moving, it's still"Partial 2" max and doesn't trigger. Yes, and my approch is the complete opposite ;-) Which is not better than yours, but - different Bt this shows the flexibility of your project. Hope I get a small video till wednesday, in the monemt I'm struggeling with the RED/BLACK issue.

I see. Then it is not suitable for my project, what a pity.

Now, as far as I see: fine. But color detection is strange? RED is detected according to Log, triggered at "Partial 6", whatever that means ;-) BLACK is detected, but never reaches more than Partial 1 -and therefore is never triggered? And the colors in the log aren't reflected in GetColor, only obove Partial 6 (Recommended)

THX, give me some minutes, please Yes, looks much better, I'll now try to add buttons and invoke some action..... (which it did in 0.8, but counld't be saved properly)

don't hurry!

Hi, thanks for new Version. Handset and Buttons work. But: Loading a project Turn on Handset Save leads to: ERROR - Could not save file: Der Typ "LegoTrainProject.RemoteHub" in Assembly "LegoTrainProject, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" ist nicht als serialisierbar gekennzeichnet.

Hi, perfect. I'm just building some test-layout (very, very small, of course) and will finish that tomorrow. So hopefully there will be a video on sunday. I'm glad about the "Button pressed", cause WIN 10 is not where the layout is.......

With PF you have 4x8 battery and 4x4 for receiver So you could replace that with two Hubs 4x8, thats not that much more, as the standard modell has a train plate 28 long.

Hi, yes, if the CONTROl+ has a size that fits into a train. I doubt, cause in seems to contain 6 AA batteries.

Hi. I edited my post meanwhile. "Tiltsensor" is reported be people visiting the fair. Duplo only plays stored sounds. (on EV3 I can load anything to it and play) . Where the space is going to? Perhaps AA batteries for four large motors?

Seems that the new Hub has the app. format of a EV3 Brick, and hopfully will use 6 AA Some rumors talk about two integrated moros, but I can't believe. As the Boost-Hub is called "Move Hub" I think it is different. And with all known LEGO applications sound comes from the tablet. And anything other than the PF 2.0 technique would be insane. We'll have to wait..... PS: first is confirmed: - new Hubs - looking like EV3-bricks - no integrated Motors - integrated tilt sensor - Connections like Boost/PoweredUp - Servo-motor

Hi, yes, seems to me that my .lpt has been destroyd or had some old data in it. I now copied all source-code into the appropiate windows, everything fine.

Yes, much better, but the same still with the ">" Button left to "Edit" in a seqeunce (not sensor event)

Hi, having only one window at a time makes it a bit difficult for me to program events and sequences and control the running program. Fine!

Hi, it's not quite ok....yet Clicking on "EDIT" in a sequence shows code, but code window is always in front.. Clicking on "EDIT" in "sensor event" or click ">" to start a sequence both give an error, seems that there is somthing pointig to your local harddisk? ---------------------------------------------------- System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Der Index war außerhalb des Arraybereichs. bei LegoTrainProject.MainBoard.WriteCodeButton_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in C:\Users\Cosmik\Dropbox ..........
