Hi all, just to be sure before destroy mya new hardware I can connect both Boost-Motor and Boost-Senser to a PoweredUp-Hub? I can connect PoweredUp-Motor to a Boost-Move Hub?
-
Hi Cosmik42 , thanks for your quick answer! But: where can I find the "new" version? And, I'm very sorry, more questions: What does a syntax for RampMotorSpeed(Port, 1000,1000) mean? (I assume Port,v,time) And what about others motor types, which can be moved by a specific angle, like Boost or WeDo? (but perhaps they pop up when I attach one)
-
Hi Cosmik42, my first PoweredUp components arrived and work fine. Just downloaded your program: awesome! Thanks al lot! But I'm a little bit confused, I'v got a file that saysV.03, but "About" V0.1. Now I found the "Debug V2" which seems to be more actual, but still "about V0.1" Did I mix something up? Which one should I use? The Debug V2 offers "refresh UI" and "configure" the ports (name for Motor etc.) Second: for the C# snippets Is there a list/and or summery for commads, parameters and usage? Edit: Ah, just found, in the new version tey are listed in the title. But the rampMotorSpeed is defined as (port, speed, time), but leads to an error (# of parameters) There are noc commands for Hub[0] ? Any help welcome!
-
Yse, that's really good news. And as hoped and desired it's not called "PuP" or "boost", but includes the whole family, WeDo and DUPLO as well. Very Good!

Any ideas on building a smooth lift/elevator?

Hi, I just built some models based on my ideas mentioned above. First uses the Brick, Modified 1 x 2 with Groove and bars Second uses grooves made from normal bricks and axles -
Any ideas on building a smooth lift/elevator?
Lok24 replied to RTL7's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Hi, I had the same problem when building the elevator for the "Red Keep" * Here some ideas: This is the cage for an EV3, but the ideas can be adapted Importatnt are the blue parts: the axles have rounded ends (original by LEGO) and hold it left&right The blue Technic, Plate 1 x 5 with Smooth Ends hold it forward/backward And here is the solution for smooth movement: Bar 1 x 3 with 2 Stud Receptacles (Radio Handle, Phone Handset) * I only did programming and mechanical solutions, the MOC is not mine -
Hi, my question referrs to Mr Hobbles train show here: Is there a "ready to use" program or some package which I can use?
-
It depends on the voltage level, sometimes they are connected to VCC or ground, sometimes there are resistors in addition, their values help to decode the type. Same with EV3/NXT Have a look how to change type of motor:
-
That's what i thought when I first saw the hub. And you could add very small boosters for more motor outputs. Or Speakers? These Gadgets just need a special coding on ID1/ID2 and send the complete protocoll via M1/M2 There is. Only when the appropriate hardware is connected the apps work properly, the same with boost. And as far as I know you can connect motor or sensor to each port, and it will be detected without demaging anything. ( And you can "ask" the hub what ist connected, via Software)
-
Yes, that's the situation. It's only made for a two-WeDo-motor-modell. it would be nice to have in the future some possibilities to add conditions and 1 motor (no matter which) and a sensor (no matter which)
-
Sounds interesting, but then only for the two motors, I assume? Edit: Yes, confirmed, only movements, no sensors (or not found yet l)
-
Ah, I see! Thanks! Yes, then it would be very useful to bring them together. So with every new Boost Model the app must be expanded.
-
As I undertstood there are only apps for specific models (and therefore specific Hubs): - train app (Cargo train and passenger train) using PuP Hub - BatApp (Batmobile) using PuP Hub - RollercoasterApp (10261) using Boost Move Hub - NinjagoApp ( 70652 ) using Boost Move Hub - Arctic Explorer( 60194 ) using Boost Move Hub - BoostApp (Boost-Set, all 5 models) using Boost Move Hub So what is your idea of a "PoweredUp" app to Contol Boost? Or do you mean that there could be a "universal app"?
-
Hi, when first announced in 2017 the WinX requirement for the Boost App was a Tochscreen. Did this change meanwhile? I couldn't find more infos yet
-
Hi all, is it possible with the LEGO Train App to operate more than one train at a time? Or is 1 train = 1 tablet (the handheld can operate up to five trains, switched by the green button as indicated by the color of the LED)
-
Hi, the HUB is available directly fom LEGO, price is app. 45,34 € All parts (Hub, RemoteControl, Motor) are available at Bricklink, each about 16,-- € +/- 4 € 9V Battery Box Powered Up Bluetooth HUB with Light Bluish Gray Bottom Electric, Battery Box : 28738c01 EUR 14.80+ Powered Up Bluetooth Speed Remote Control Unit with Light Bluish Gray Base : Electric : 28739c01 EUR 12.34+ Train Motor 9V RC Train with Integrated Powered Up Attachment, Orange Wheel Holders (motor only, no attached wheels) Electric, Train : 28740c01 EUR 12.31+

Thanks for this short summery. By design it is not possible to stack the plugs, and this can easily be explained by the fact, that the HUB should determine what is connected to a single port. A nice extension would be some "booster", perhaps like a 2x2 Brick in size. Plugged into the Hub it offers 2 Motor Ports (for Train Motors only) running simultaniously, one of them can be reversed. Another nice extension would be some "booster", perhaps like a 2x4 Brick in size. Plugged into the Hub it offers 4 Motor Ports independend from each other.
-
Thanks a lot!
-
Tanks for this information. But: What ist the "Duplo train base "? What Number? Which Set? Thanks for any help.
-
Yes, sure. Where can I find that? Thanks!
-
Hi, very nice and useful. There are many ways to connect a cable to PF-Connectors. But how did you manage the connection between the red cabel and the PU-Plug? And: hopefully there will be an adapter cable soon.
-
Indeed, that's a vision! But yet rather expensiv, that's why I showed my integration of the RPi with very old and cheap motors. Small and only one battery box for the complete layout. But wired. There might be interesting mixes of both techniques, sensors and loco via BT, but some wires for signals, switches and so on.
