I use the IR tower to transmit MacNQC programs to (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I'll do you one better. Tim, If you (or any robotics expert) will locate posts in lugnet.robotics that contain the most frequent questions and answers (can be the same or different posts) then I'll edit the posts into the FAQ Todd referred to. Or, (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.faq)

(...) Well, if you want to hang it of the serial connector (which is *minute* BTW), then the connector itself might be good enough. The case has two small holes (about a millimeter in diameter - two millimeters deep) that are either side of the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Can anyone summarize the current state of development for a direct Palm to RCX interface? As far as I can tell from the archives, the best that one can do right now is: --control the IR tower from a Palm Pilot. --emulate the Lego remote control from (...)

Or of course, Tim, if you've got enough time on you hands, you could create a robotics FAQ with questions you feel are appropriate, and then ask Cary to link to it. :-) Making an FAQ is easier than one might think...

What if we could get the tower circuitry made smaller (as in the classroom transmitter thread). It might be put as a 1/4" thick thing that clamps to the bottom of the device (also have lego studs on it?). Mr. Baker, could you tell us if there's any (...) (24 years ago, 4-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)
