|
|
Hi all, This might not be the right place to announce new lego-related software, but I thought some of you might be interested. colibri is a free RTOS which currently runs on the RCX. One cool hardware-related thing about colibri is that the LCD (...) (23 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi Robolab 2.5 advanced users, Have a look at (URL) where I posted a simple multi-robot communication-system developped on the base of LEGO standard firmware 2.0. Imagine you have several RCXs (RCX-1 .. RCX-n) active in a project. It is now possible (...) (23 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) My first guess on this problem is that the firmware is no longer loaded on the RCX. Check the LCD display - if it doesn't show 5 digits (e.g. "00.00 1") then the firmware isn't installed. If you can locate the firmware file (typically called (...) (23 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)

I've posted a patch at sourceforge which allows you to modify the RCX's LNP id using the util/dll program. This should make life easier for those of us using multiple RCXs and LNP. This patch applies to the current CVS head, post 0.2.6, though it (...) (23 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
