I absolutely, positively, have to have one of those. I need something to represent the XY plane in my 3D class, and the regular green/gray baseplates aren't cutting it (the XY plane in my CAD systems is transparent). I end up using a piece of plexi, (...) (21 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.general)

You have to open a port to the Lego Tower. Generally it looks like a file. Here's some Python code I'm using that does it, someone can probably translate to Java: irHnd = CreateFile("\\\\.\\legotower1", GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE, 0, None, (...) (21 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics)
