I was wondering if the Polarity Switch (Or some other lego piece) would provide
a mechanical way to switch the direction of a lego motor connected to the RCX.

For some projects, I am just using the RCX as a power supply to the motor.
I hate having to tie up sensors to reverse the direction of the motor.

ALSO,,,, can you use the (5037) Electric Plates to provide a connection between
a motor and the RCX input port?

It would be great to avoid using the wire connectors on some projects.

Thanks,
Dave :-)

(...) Yes. (...) Yes. Don't be hesitant to experiment with LEGO electrical stuff ... it is "child proof" and therefore is almost indestructable. - - - Nick - - - -- Did you check the web site first?: (URL) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics)
