This is a good idea.

You could use the same principle to send 27 different values to a single RCX.
I.e. your one and only RCX could act as its own MUX.

Here's an encoding scheme that gives you 1 one-key combination, 3 two-key
combinations, and 6 3-key combinations. You pay a price for the shortcuts,
though. For 27 or more values you need at least 5 keystrokes. For values from 11
to 253 you need 7 keystrokes (and a good wetware trinary calculator)!

Value : key combination
1 : 1
2 : 2 1
3 : 2 2
4 : 2 3
5 : 3 1 1
6 : 3 1 2
7 : 3 1 3
8 : 3 2 1
9 : 3 2 2
10: 3 2 3
11-253: 3 3 n n n n n, where n is 1, 2 or 3

(...) 11 (...) Alternatively, input 1 could be start/stop frame and input 2 and 3 could be 0 and 1 allowing you to enter any binary number (low bit first). This is workable for us nerd couch potatoes who think in binary and are really fast with the (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I've found a way to provide 27 IR signals from the LEGO remote control. See my site for an explanation: (URL) essence you need 2 RCX, 1 to act as a MUX. (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.robotics)
