Hi to all,

I'm seeking help for something which could seem anachronistic, but that's it.
I used my old RCX 1.0 (programmed with NQC) to power and control a "3S"
detachable cableway.
Hereunder I post some link to a couple of youtube movies.

The problem is, after running 10 minutes or so (I actually didn't take the exact
time), the RCX shuts down - I mean - the display goes blank, everything stops.

I read somewhere, e.g. in the PHilo's site, that a "power off delay" parameter
can be set long enough to avoid such issues, but I actually couldnt find where
this parameter is.

Could you please give me some hint? I am quite much a newbye.

Thanks a lot!

Maybe this is what you are looking for:

SetSleepTime(minutes) Function - All
Set the sleep timeout the requested number of minutes (which must be a
constant).
Specifying 0 minutes disables the sleep feature.
SetSleepTime(5); // sleep after 5 minutes
SetSleepTime(0); // disable sleep time
