  Re: Scout vs RIS and reverse engineering and Byte Codes
 
(...) The Scout must have control programming somewhere. What interests me is that out of 1K of RAM only about 400 bytes is available to hold a user program. Could the control program be held (preloaded) in the remaining 624 bytes of RAM? Robert (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  RE: Scout vs RIS and reverse engineering and Byte Codes
 
(...) I'm just guessing. If it has the upload data opcode, why not unlock firmware? On the RCX, there needed to be a specical code "Do you byte...etc" to allow the firmware to be "unlocked" and executed from 0x8000 hex. Now, the trick was to monitor (...)
