(...) I think it could probably work with the printr port. But what I would do is get a serial to printer port adapter or buy another wire which ever is cheapest. I have a wire that runs out the serial port with a 25 pin(i think) connection then an (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Hi Greg, I'm not sure if the RCX IR Tower is the same than the Scout Tower, but I guess it's so. You can't use the printer port (LPT) for the tower. You have to use a serial port (COM1, COM2, ..). If you're not sure if you've got the right (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Eep!!! Not PRINTER port but the SERIAL port. You'll damage your Port and maybe the IR tower as well! Try it in the SERIAL port and it will work much better. Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I recently purchased an IR tower to use with my Scout. It did not come with a cable, but the tower was only 6$(www.eblok.com), so I found a cable that could plug into the back of it. The other end of the cable fit into the printer plug on the back (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Could you give some directive to the maximum size of it in 'bricks'? It would be a challenge to make a small adder-subtracter with a small basis, although it would probably mean that it will become a little higher than usual. Jeroen. ___...___ Visit (...)
