| Does anyone know how to poll the RCX (with standard firmware 2.0) to find out whether a program has terminated yet? If you can see the LCD, you can see whether the little man is still moving, but can you check this from a host computer? The (...) (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|
| The 2.0 firmware is available separately from LEGO as part of the 2.0 SDK. You can use this firmware with a 1.5 set (or even a 1.0 set). If you are not planning on using the Lego software then the only difference between 2.0 and 1.5 is that 2.0 has (...) (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
