Heck, sometimes the pieces flew pretty far :) But, not to worry, I fixed the problem in the new configuration. No output jams at (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

(...) How did the meeting go? Was the lack of enthusiasm due to poor showing for the 3T robots, or folks not wanting to do the 2nd drive right after NEIRG? I figured I'd bring my 3T robot to NEIRG as a demo anyway. (...) Yeah, I wish my limiting (...) (20 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

(...) I didn't think we were doing a GBC @ the Children's Expo. I thought we were thinking of doing a 3T demo, but nothing else (and by general consensus at this evening's meeting, we weren't all that enthusiastic about that). I thought all GBC (...)

| | Re: broken RCX
|

Well, after a little looking around on Lugnet & googling "RCX internals" I found that one problem when people take apart RCXs is that a small surface mount fuse on the board is blown. After poking around with my el-cheapo test light, I found that (...) (20 years ago, 5-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

(...) I wonder how many "possessed" RCXs there are out there. I've got at least one as well (currently in a line-follower) - it's newest symptom is briefly powering OUT_A when I try to run a program via the remote (same program run via the "run" (...)

Some of you may have been aware of my "posessed" rcx. It was a little screwed up. When I powered it on, sometimes it would just start up motor output A for no reason at all. It would run motor A indefinitly if I let it. Sometimes running a program (...) (20 years ago, 4-Feb-06, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)
