  Re: Power to RCX
 
(...) Oops, me bad, I meant 7809. BTW, here are some links to online data sheets for that type of regulator: (URL) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Power to RCX
 
Hi Trevyn, From the photo you posted, it appears that you have the input and output pins of the 7805 reversed. According to the datasheet, this will probably fry the regulator. I'd recommend getting a new part before continuing, so as not to risk (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: IP on Mindstorms
 
I just saw Styx-in-a-brick at Linuxworld. (Styx is the distributed file system component of Inferno and fits into 17k.) The RCX was built into a clock (time display device) and was keeping in sync with the host machine via infrared. On the host (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: true tcp/ip on the RCX
 
Cool stuff, congrats on the Slashdot recognition. Hope the "Slashdot Effect" didn't totally cripple your server. Wondering if you or Olaf could make the LegOS code available for all to see, just wondering how it was all done for educational purposes (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: true tcp/ip on the RCX
 
(...) [...] (...) A few days ago, Olaf sent me his legOS TCP/IP code which I have been running a few days, so I probably have the world's second TCP/IP-enabled Lego brick in my office :-) ! I was also able to squeeze in a simple web server, a few (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Robotic DAT Tape Loader
 
(...) No it's not cool. The images won't load at all. It doesn't have anything to do with waiting. When I click the link it tries to do something with JavaScript which doesn't work. Can you fix it so the links just go straight to the images and (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Micromouse Robotic Competition, Could RCX do this?
 
(...) Taking a look at the rules, there doesn't seem to be any penalty for touching the walls, so I dont see why you couldn't use a single RXC with 2 motors and 3 (or 4) touch sensors: left, front, right (back). These can be multiplexed onto a (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Motor Drivers for higher voltages
 
I was looking for the data sheet for the Melexis 10402 motor driver IC, the one in the RCX. It is no longer on their website. I eventually found it, and have posted it here: (URL) want to drive 24V motors and use the RCX to control them. Ideally I (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)

  Southern Ohio Competitions ?
 
Are there any Lego Robotics competitions in the Cincinnati OH/Northern Kentucky (USA) area? Thanks, Bill (24 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Micromouse Robotic Competition, Could RCX do this?
 
I recently stumbled across a reference to the Micromouse Robotics competition and thought others in the group might find it interesting. It looks like something that would be [barely] achieveable with a Mindstorms implementation. APEC [Applied Power (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) That's the iTools automatic photo album feature...it's quite cool, but it might take a minute for the large images to load. Even on my 800k connection it takes a bit for the images to load. I like the idea of an auto CD loader though...I've (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
