  Re: rcx unit
 
(...) Basically yes, but you still need to install RIS 2.0 to your computer in order to download firmware to RCX. After downloading firmware you can drive RCX via remote control unit (...) Nope, as I wrote, you have to install RIS 2.0 first (but no (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: rcx unit
 
(...) Welcome to the world of LEGO robotics! You don't need to program the RCX to use it with the MindStorms remote, but you do need to download the firmware into the RCX before it will recognize the remote commands. When you first take the RCX out (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)
 
  Re: rcx unit
 
(...) Definitely not. The signal is transmitted via infrared signals (IR) -- the same way your TV remote communicates with the television. If you cover up the receiver, there is no way to pick up the signal. Also, remember that IR is directed... so (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: rcx unit
 
(...) The RCX has to have the firmware installed to be able to respond to the remote--out of the box (or sometimes after replacing batteries), there is no firmware installed on the RCX and you have to download it using a PC. The issue of enclosing (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  rcx unit
 
I'm new to the RCX Lego world and robotics. Can I use the remote control unit item# 9738 with the Electric Mindstorms RCX unit item # 884 without any computer programming? Will they work together out of the box? Can the RCX unit be completely (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Memory
 
I'm using Robolab 2.5 and am running out of containers. I only need about 18 or so states, and I need as many as possible containers. I know in some languages like NQC you can store bits and bytes in containers when you only need a few states, but (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Please help (XP,RIS 2.0 problem)
 
(...) I would open the Lego tower control panel applet and see what it has to say about your tower. Also, I would try using NQC directly to see if it behaves any differently with respect to the USB tower. It sounds like a software problem with the (...)

  Re: Please help (XP,RIS 2.0 problem)
 
Did you run the ris 2.0? I think you need to do something to setup the tower by running the ris software once.

  Please help (XP,RIS 2.0 problem)
 
I have installed RIS 2.0 on my new laptop (3 weeks old). I have also installed Bricxcc. I have not installed the Mindstorms SDK 2.0. I have 3 built in USB 2.0 ports (which also run 1.1 USB devices, duh)... Anyway, when I start Mindstorms, I get to (...) (22 years ago, 17-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
