The RCX let you run the crane by remote, but it also had a default program
that would run the crane through a random sequence.

Do you seriously mean a random sequence? Or just a preprogrammed sequence of
ops. If random, where was the random seed being obtained?

I'm not entirely certain if the entire sequence was randomized, but the
durations certainly were.  NQC has a random number function.

thanks,

James
