| | RCX not listening to IR remote
|
|
I just dug all my old Mindstorms RCX gear out of the closet because my 4-year old son is now ready to play with gears and motors and stuff. Programming is a bit off yet, but he loves the technics parts. I was trying to get the RCX to work with the (...) (15 years ago, 25-Oct-09, to lugnet.robotics)

Chris, I don't think the RCX will "listen" to the remote, unless you've loaded the firmware. The firmware will need replaced, if the batteries have been removed (or have died). On the RCX, it will show the program number (1-5), and it will also (...) (15 years ago, 26-Oct-09, to lugnet.robotics)

Firstly, do you have the firmware on the RCX in question? If the screen shows 00.00.00 then you should be good (i think). Turn on the RCX, and start pressing buttons. Connected motors and lights should start doing "things" repsonding to the (...) (15 years ago, 26-Oct-09, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'm not at all that certain the RCX can actually listen to the remote. If I recall correctly, Bob Kojima got the RCX to work as a remote control for the PF IR-Receiver, but to do so he used BrickOS and it would only work with an RCX 1.0 I (...) (15 years ago, 26-Oct-09, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) They are talking about the old IR remote (#9738), not the PF one. So, it should work like a charm. Cheers, Matija (15 years ago, 27-Oct-09, to lugnet.robotics)

I've been trying to read the NXTasy front page and forums for a couple of days without any luck. The site appears to be down. Does anyone know what's going on? Jetro (15 years ago, 12-Nov-09, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I wish we did. NXTasy has gone down for reasons unknown, and at least so far hasn't come back up. The only guy who has admin privileges (Eric... something. I don't remember his last name) hasn't been around for a while, and no one has been (...) (15 years ago, 12-Nov-09, to lugnet.robotics)
