i have a Cassiopiea e-125 and i was wondering where i could get a • program
that utilises the built-in IR port instead of the IR tower to • control
the
RCX.

Brian,

I don't believe that this is available, but I will be anxious to hear • what
others say.

Steven

the problem with trying to hack the IR port on a Windows CE machine is • that
the IR is part of the chip architecture. There were some work arounds • for
the SIMS but since Motorola pretty much ahs the market on PSPC's you're
probably going to have to be stuck with the MIPS.  there is a version of • NQC
for PSPC's (i have it somewhere) that also has a workaround for adapting • the
IR tower to some of the RS232C (or S?) ports included on them.  you may • want
to see if there is a way to power them through the port with John Barnes
smaller IR tower (I'm really happy with mine) it's hella cool.

URL for that mini tower?

Dean


Well. I can't seem to find it, I did get mine as a demo from John, He sent
me a GIF of the circuit but i can't find that either.  I don't think that he
decided to put them into production, but i do believe that if you asked him
he might send you the circuit.  i'd like to take mine apart to see how he
free-formed it but i'm scared to.  the whole thing fits into two 2x4 bricks.

if anyone wants the original thing i got for porting NQC to WindowsCE i can
send it to them.  found it and it does include a workaround for using the
standard powered tower with the RS232S (or C?) port.

ask for it off list.
