| | Re: Communicate RCX2 with Spybot
|
| (...) Yes, they can communicate using IR. Look at the contents of the MindScript header files included in the LEGO Mindstorms SDK 2.5. Also read the Spybot SDK information regarding its built-in subroutines. In addition to using MindScript you can (...) (20 years ago, 18-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)

He has since passed those questions and corresponding answers on to me: *** How much memory is in the brick? (compared to RCX) *** Two (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)

| (...) Sorry, think I have mixed some things up. People from the Lego hotline told me the ir-interface of the RIS 2.0 RCX has been changed and communication to a spybot is not possible. Are these changes only because of the usb-tower and do they have (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| (...) Um, you should be able to just point the RCX's ports at each other and talk via the IR link. What development environment are you using? check it's manual for the functions to send and receive bytes via IR. Cheers Tim (26 years ago, 9-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)

With the higher baud rate, the duration of the 2-byte Spybot/Manas packets is halved. This allows for fewer collisions (...) (21 years ago, 26-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
