  problems using firmdl3 and dll on Red Hat 6.2
 
I recently cleared off my laptop HD and installed Red Hat 6.2, then downloaded and installed all the packages listed in the legOS HOWTO... but have run into a couple snags. 1st and most important, I am not able to send anything via the IR Tower.

  RE: RCX Dead??
 
I applied power to the last capacitor towards the back...and it works!!! Should I connect to this capacitor using a fuse or anything first or is it safe to solder leads directly from this capacitor? thanks -----Original Message----- From: (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Any hope for my RCX?
 
I have(had…)-:) a 1.0 RCX without an adapter-plug on it and I tried to connect an 9V adapter to the battery-connectors. It all worked fine, but when I put the RCX back together and tried to turn the RCX back on whit the adapter it didn’t work. Now (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: BricxCC release 3.3.3.8
 
hi John, thanks for your attention. I know the cause, you know the solution ;-) The size of BricxCC when opening the first file, depends on the SIZE of the file to be opened. 8 bytes, window stays as it is 256 bytes, blows the window up to about (...)

  Re: Bricks in my Pocket (BimP) now available!
 
(...) I too had a slight giggle when I discovered that Bricks in my Pocket resulted in BimP. It was too good not to use. Thanks for the feedback! Steven B. Combs, Editor Bricks in my Pocket (BimP) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: BricxCC release 3.3.3.8
 
(...) I can't duplicate this behavior. I think it might have something to do with those pesky DSK files (maybe?). Can you check to see if the files listed in your recent file list have associated desktop files (*.DSK)? Thanks, John Hansen (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

i have a Cassiopiea e-125 and i was wondering where i could get a program that utilises the built-in IR port instead of the IR tower to control the RCX. (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.palm)
 
  Re: Connecting a non-Lego motor with external battery to the RCX
 
(...) If the motor runs on 9V anyway, just hook it up to RCX directly (assuming it only draws 500ma). If it needs more than that, hook an external battery up to it via a power transistor (either bipolar or FET). You'll need a resistor in series with (...)

  Re: Lost my IR Tower - Scout SDK
 
Hi, If you have the SDK2 for the RIS then you have all you need to develop for the Scout. It uses the RCX 2.0 firmware, and all that is different is the following: 1 x built in light sensor (takes away one input). 1 x runnable program mode (select (...)

  Re: multiplexor and legOS
 
I'm not sure if anyone is trying out my multiplexor patch, but thought I'd let you all know that I posted a new version which works better and solves some problems in the earlier revision.

  Re: BricxCC release 3.3.3.8
 
hi John, everything seems to work fine now, I couldn't get it slowed down. A funny effect, everytime you start BricxCC, it sizes to the previous size, ok. Now opening a file (from the recent file list), BricxCC fills the whole screen. Thanks for the (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: RCX Dead??
 
(...) Also, there can be contact problems between the tabs and the circuit board. They are not soldered on, they only press against two square contact areas in the corners. If they are a little bent they can loose that contact, which happened to my (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: RCX Dead??
 
(...) Definitely. I was having problems with my light sensor (this was before I was using legOS) - the 'test panel' in the Mindstorms software wasn't reading it, and the RCX just showed a boolean 1 on the light sensor port. So I called LEGO, and (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics)

hi matthias with two "t"s, hi list!
