Many direct-mode commands require an RCX reply.  When multiple RCXs try to
reply simultaneously, the tower gets confused and thinks the command didn't
work.

The only way around this problem that I know of is to only use commands that
don't require a reply.  One of these is SendMessage.  If you use messaging
to transmit your commands instead of direct mode, it will work.

(...) Hi Ian, Thanks for the reply. Do you know how to use the SendMessage-command from the tower? Normally if you insert this command in a Robolab-file, it will be downloaded to the RCX and executed there. Best regards, Claude (25 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
