(...) The only difference between a 1.5 and a 2.0 RCX is the sticker that says "2.0". Only the 1.0 RCX is a little different (it has an external power socket). However, there are lots of differences between the RIS 1.5 and RIS 2.0 sets (the (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)

John, I noticed the SetTxDirection() function in your mana_control.nqc program. I thought it might be useful for my project, so it became my next subject of study. The spy.nqh shows this: #define TX_DIRECTION_FRONT_LEFT 0 #define (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
