 | | NXT and Firmware
|
| My FLL team just received its NXT kit, and I of course decided to learn how to use it before the kids, so I could help them. I turned it on, loaded up ROBOLAB 2.9, plugged in the NXT, and went to the Administrator panel. I changed the port from COM1 (...) (19 years ago, 18-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

| Hi Robolab 2.5 advanced users, Have a look at (URL) where I posted a simple multi-robot communication-system developped on the base of LEGO standard firmware 2.0. Imagine you have several RCXs (RCX-1 .. RCX-n) active in a project. It is now possible (...) (23 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)
