Hello, Are there any know problems getting the h8 cross compiler working under Windows XP? I'm using the latest cygwin environment, along with gcc3.2, newlib1.10, and have tried both the binutils source distributed with cygwin (2002070601?) and I (...)

(...) From my experience, The remotes, when first turned on, seem to send out the signals on all channels (1,2,3), until a specific channel is picked--then the remote only works for the robot that is on that specific channel.

(...) I think a switched on RCX that doesn't use sensors or motors draws ca 10mA, regardless of the program running. That's enough to drain batteries in a few days. Jürgen (23 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Did you noticed that Snaptrax remote control can directly control any Spybotic, as others remotes can't ??? I'm wondering why... - Christophe - (23 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

I have used the Radiometrix BIM-433-F transceiver which is sold via the usual elecrtonics catalogues. It's a 433MHz half-duplex transmitter/receiver (34x23x8mm) at 56 UK pounds. We tested it in a stone building and found we could just communicate at (...) (23 years ago, 23-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

This is extremely preliminary, but I can't wait to share the news. I've managed to build a Hitachi H8 cross compiler for GNU Pascal (under cygwin on W2K) and have successfully downloaded and ran the following Pascal program on brickOS. program (...)
