Updated manual for JBot (aka JavelinBot)

Parallax sent me the source documents of the JBot manual.
Up to now there was only a draft version with most pictures missing.

Luckily the sources I got did have the pictures but they were wrongly
numbered and the text references didn't match.
I spent this day numbering the pictures and·updating the text references.
The result is a document that is at least readable with references to the
correct pictures.

The manual is split in two attachements because of filesize.

Thanks Parallax for providing the sources.


regards peter

    Thank you Peter for making this manual usable. Sad this project was discontinued some time ago. Since then there has been sporadic interest by existing Javelin users as well as those wishing to experiment with robots using Java. Thanks to you they will be able to do so now. Take care.

    Great job, Peter!

    Since this manual was a draft version, I had printed all the chapters and then I had corrected by hand most of the errors and replaced the missing pictures with links to similar pictures taken from the BS2 Boe-Bot manual.

    Now I can throw away my printed copy and use your new version.

    As I said in another post some weeks ago, the Javabot is a very powerful robotic platform.

    Thank you
