 | | Elimating the need for the IR tower
|
|
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has ever worked out a way of communicating direct with the RCX (via serial), rather than using the IR tower. The way I am using the RCX, it is sort of strapped to a notebook computer, so having to use the IR tower just (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Hiya :) Well, I'm still waiting for the RCX... it's supposed to arrive in 4 weeks :/ Anyway, these are the things I got so far: 1) It's possible to use the OUTport->INport direct electrical connection *IF* one uses the Off() and Float() commands to (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
