If you have had problems downloading NQC programs using BricxCC with the USB
tower you may want to try adjusting these three timeout values.  Depending on
your PC you may need to use different values than the ones which worked for the
user who figured out this issue for me.

See that is what makes Lugnet such a great resource! I finally decided to try
out Bricxcc/NQC (after using BrickOS on Linux) and it worked fine when I was
just downloading short "Hello World" programs, but I pretty soon ran into this
problem and wondered what I'd changed. Typed "reply from rcx" into Lugnet
search, and Voila! This post comes up at the top, and fixes my problem!

Thanks all!

I'm getting the same error with my Scout and Bricxcc/NQC for downloading programs, the direct control works fine.   I found that having fresh batteries helped in getting programs to download successfully.   I'll try the timeout adjustment as well
