Very strange. I've heard of some problems with *long* programs failing to
load, but never with something as short as test.nqc. Try the following
command and e-mail me the results (dbaum@enteract.com)
nqc -d -l -v test.nqc
(this will print a code listing, then download in "verbose" mode).
Hopefully you'll have one run that fails, then a second that works. I can
then compare the verbose traces to see what the differences are. I'll
also be able to validate the actualy bytecodes being sent, etc. If it
comes down to a simple communication reliability problem, there are some
options we can use to increase the backoff times and/or retry counts.
As a work around, you may want to try playing with the near/far settings
for IR. Try flipping the switch on the IR tower. To change the RCX's
setting, use
nqc -near
or
nqc -far
Personally, I have the best results with near mode, but I've heard an
occasional report of the opposite behavior.

| Hi all- Need some help troubleshooting this: I'm trying nqc on the Mac, and so the first thing I did was try the test program that came with it, but I'm getting weird errors. I should preface this by saying that my current setup of cables, IR tower (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
