I know that you old-timers (?-) out there already know this, but I just
learned it last week and some others may not know by now. You can read the
sensor values directly on the brick's display by pressing the "view" button
repeatedly until the arrow is under the correct power block. I found this
super useful when debugging my RCX IRPD board which delivered four different
values. If was something that I could use without having to hook up to the
RCXCC control panel. I don't know what the last value displayed is though,
I have never seen it change - is it a battery voltage level in some oddball
units?
Ya learn something new every day!
have fun,
DLC

| You can also force it to run the output. Press and hold view while its pointing to a output, and then the Pgrm and Run buttons work to run it forwards and backwards. Its a bit of a pain to use, but nice when prototyping new mechanical creations. (...) (26 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics)
