If you mean standard firmware message, I think you should use my remote control patch for legOS025, you can find them at (URL) luck! Zhengrong (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi, We need to send and receive messages between a PC and a RCX with legOs, but we can't find the serial communication procedures in the code or libraries. Does anybody can help us??? Thanks in advance, Mauro + Prof. Dr. Mauro Roisenberg Dept. de (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics)

It is easier to use legOS to instead NQC, and it is more power, very easy to be used. Zhengrong (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | Re: Battery use
|

Yes, but it won't last long. The HB's electronics draw around 20 - 40 mA. the lifetime of an alkaline 9v is approx 1 Amp hour. So that give you 25 - 50 hours of run time. In practice, you'd get less, 'cause the 1 AH rating assumes a much slower (...) (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Well, you could hack the LEGO firmware. Not easy but possible. Jürgen (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

If I use a separate battery supply for the motor outputs, will a single 9v battery provide sufficient power for the rest of the Handyboard instead of the 8 AA cells (9.6V)? (24 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Alternativeley you can continue using the valve with the old style pump and have an air tank (if you own two) on each side i.e. one that holds the vaccum and one that holds the pressureized air. but... theres still the problem of flipping the valve (...)

(...) Yes, you can store vacuum. But all you can store is 1 atmosphere. So a little blue tank with 4 atmospheres has a lot more storage than one with negative 1 atmosphere! Also, it's real hard to make vacuum, in the real world. I once built a (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics)
