Problem with fantom library when running toolbox on Mac.

Description

Hi,

I tried to install the RWTH-toolbox in Matlab 7.6 on a macbook (10.6.8). When running the function COM_OpenNXT I got the error message:

"The "fantom" library could not be loaded. Make sure the official Mindstorms NXT driver is installed correctly!"

I'm using a 32 bit version of matlab and am running the mac in 32 bit. Is there anything known about this issue?

Thanks in advance

Hey,

first question just to be sure: Have you installed the official NXT Driver? (Described here: http://www.mindstorms.rwth-aachen.de/trac/wiki/Download4.07#Step-by-step)

If you have installed the official Driver there is one thing you can try. In the last Version of our Toolbox i changed a few thing regarding MAC (see #74).

To Undo this change you have to change one line of Code in the COM_OpenNXTEx.m file.

Change Line 620 from

loadlibrary('Fantom', @fantom_proto,'alias','fantom');


to

loadlibrary('fantom', @fantom_proto);


But before you do this please make sure that the Driver is correctly installed.

cheers

Thanks a lot, that works! Now I am able to play a tone on the NXT via usb. But when doing the next step of the installation, which is executing the COM_MakeBTConfigFile command, Matlab crashes. Is this also known?

Hi anonymous,

the usb connection seems to work for you now. If you have still some Bluetooth issues, please create a new ticket (this keeps the ticket tracking more structured.) or have a look to already posted BT issues (e.g. #85).

Thus, I close this USB-ticket.

Have fun, Alex
