Hello,

has anybody tested to control the RCX via TCP/IP?

I want to control some RCX functions when the ir tower that holds the
connection to the RCX is at an other computer within an intranet
(classroom). Perhaps I could send NQC program files or the compiled NQC
bytecode to the "RCX server". This should simulate a roboter in a
workroom or laboratory far away from the controlling computer.

I don't want to have a black box like ROBOLAB - in this software package
is a server function to do the problem. I want to look behind the
capability of ROBOLAB and want to learn something about the things all
around this.

Bye Ralf

You could do that with a 2 Visual Basic programs. The one in the "RCX Server" would use the Spirit.OCX to control the RCX. See Mindstorms site for details. It has a full documentation of Spirit.OCX. Visual Basic also includes an ActiveX control to (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics)
