A lot of this is untested and very rough. For some reason I still can't get the Spybot to send out RC messages to a Manas unit. Sending an RCX message (opcode 0xF7) is quite simple - either using the ROM subroutine SendRCXMessage or by using the (...)

I just looked at a copy of the Lego shop at home christmas catalog. There was no 3.0 in there. So it looks like 3.0 won't come out for another year. Scott ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Faustine" <pafaustine@hotmail.com> To: (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm hanging on every byte, John. I've tried a couple times to do what your doing with the Spybot API, and I just don't seem to have what it takes. For instance, I tried to figure out how to get the Spybot to respond to its remote control from NQC, (...) (22 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
