| | | | | (...) Not a time of day clock, but you have the materials to do your own once you tell it what time it is. This would probably require you to use something like legOS. John A.

| | | | | (...) How's that? The SDK has the function SetWatch( Hours, Min ). Also, in page 47 (printed page 45) we can read in the table that the source 14-0 : "RCX. Watch. Integer where MSB=hours and LSB=minutes" If this isn't a time of day clock, tell me (...) (26 years ago, 14-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | | (...) Yes, it's a time of day clock, but you still need to tell it what time it is after turning it on. The clock only runs while the RCX is powered up. If you turn it off and on for whatever reason, the clock starts with 00:00. Tilman -- Did you (...) (26 years ago, 14-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | (...) The RCX hardware does not have a time of day clock. I haven't fooled with the standard RCX bytecode interpreter, so I wasn't aware that it implemented one in software, but it is doing just what I said you could do -- you get the initial (...)

| | | | (...) Sorry, maybe I didn't explain it very well. I don't necessarily need a clock to tell the time. What I want to do is turn on a light based on a reading from the IR port. Is this possible without using the light sensor? Thanks, Daniel. (26 years ago, 15-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
