That is sad to hear about Skype. I knew that was probably imminent when Microsoft took over.brantlewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01656707308677541872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502630736332828976.post-19139764810051994312014-01-03T05:59:12.891-06:002014-01-03T05:59:12.891-06:00The functionality of the Skype API has been restri...The functionality of the Skype API has been restricted as of Jan. 1, 2014. Does<br />TPRobot control still work? I built a version of your telepresence robot, and it worked<br />in December 2013. Now it does not?Archnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502630736332828976.post-84014856619161275192012-08-06T08:41:42.398-05:002012-08-06T08:41:42.398-05:00I'm also using the DIN for communication.

Once it goes into the auto-dock sequence I still receive telemetry but I can't send motor commands. You have to put it into Demo mode (136) to gain control of it again. Also, you will find that even though it enters the charging cycle it will charge up and then slowly drain the battery unless you reinitiate charging. I have the software operating where it sends the undocumented Soft Reset(7) command on a 30 minute cycle. Rebooting forces the iRobot to reenter the charging cycle.brantlewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01656707308677541872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502630736332828976.post-7296859602527933712012-08-06T04:31:27.395-05:002012-08-06T04:31:27.395-05:00working on similar project and had a question - is...working on similar project and had a question - is your computer able to communicate with the iRobot connect after it docks? because when I activate auto-dock, I can no longer send commands. I'm using the DIN connector not the DB25 but I thought it would be the same.Damienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00589670428882160154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502630736332828976.post-4529706786310147392011-10-22T14:08:08.572-05:002011-10-22T14:08:08.572-05:00nice project .......nice project .......albarzanjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17397805527181834861noreply@blogger.com
