 | | pbForth problems
|
| Hi, I'm trying to download pbForth onto my RCX. I'm using NQC on NT and have downloaded the latest pbForth: 1.1.1 I'm invoking NQC with: "nqc -firmware pbforth.srec" I get the dots crawling across the command-prompt window. When they almost reach (...) (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Connecting Via a USB Hub
|
| I have a USB Hub with an RS-232 port. When I connect the IR Transmitter to this port, the firmware downloads fine. If I have a program with a single RCX command block, it's fine too. If I have more than one command block, I get a download error. Any (...) (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | RCX "locking up" when trying to use dll

| Has anyone experienced the RCX "locking up" when trying to use dll? When I try to download a .lx file with dll, the brick freezes. It won't respond to any buttons and I have to take the batteries out and re-load the firmware. Any ideas why this is (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | Re: How do I control the RCX display?

In some cases you can play some tricks by displaying the Watch, then setting the watch to certain values, but this only works for certain constants (and never variables). (you also (...)

| | GPS for RCX

| The standard RCX firmware with its serial protocol could not talk to a GPS, but LegOS could. With LegOS and a GPS we could make robots that could tell where they were. This would be way cool.
