Yes it works! I was curious and have done this last week... The 'learning' remotes are capable of remembering the codes needed for your IR bricks. You can programm the RCX to sent a code (message) and let the remote learn this. Later on your RCX can (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'm having trouble downloading the patched firmware. Robolab doesn't have a .lgo file anywhere in the program directory structure, so I don't have a filename to replace with the patched file. Downloading in Robolab seems to work, but I see no (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) My arguments would be: 1. The firmware/sensor arrangement is _broken_. Fixing it should be legal. 2. The FIRST rules permit using different firmware implicitly, because they permit using RIS or Robolab, which requires different firmware. 3. (...)

Hello Dick, Looks great, but it doesn't seem to work well here: - counts up 2 by 2, but counts down correctly one by one - loses count, especially when counting up. My tests were done with a brand new, unmodified rotation sensor. I mounted a wheel (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

 | | Universal Remote vs Lego remote
|

I'm very new to the whole robotics thing so forgive me if the answer to my question is obvious. Can a universal remote, the type that "learns" the function of other remotes, be used to "learn" the functions of the Lego remote? and.. If the IR tower (...)

Following up from my earlier post, I have completed a firmware patch for the rotation sensors. This post contains the patch with installation instructions followed by a technical description. A long post but hopefully more than made up by the value (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
