2008 Gyro Code

[FireJet]

Looks like I need to get the really new 2008 code. I still have the version from January that has the old readme.txt file. I'll post more if it still doesn't work.

Yeah, that code is sooo January <grin>.

Just another question while I'm at it. I used the new default code to test the gyro, and in gyro.h I set "#define TENTHS_OF_A_DEGREE", but when I get input from the gyro I'm getting numbers that range from the double/triple digits to in the thousands, even when I divide by 10. Should this be happening?

If you are looking at the output of Get_Gyro_Angle, then readings such as 900 would be 90*, 300 would be 30*, 3600 would be 360*, etc.

Even after it's been divided by 10? And even after that, I shouldn't be getting values over 6000, should I?

We are getting output greater then 6000 even after it have been divided 10. Is that suppose to be like that?

So, does anyone know how to fix this?
