 | | what's a Code Pilot?
|
|
I hope you'll forgive a newbie for what must be a FAQ, but what exactly is a Code Pilot, what can it do, and how can I get one? I gather from the group description that it's some sort of programmable brick, perhaps an alternative to the RCX. But (...) (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot)

| | reed switch/codepilot question
|
|
Greetings, I was looking at using a reed switch to control some train stuff. Unfortunately I only have a codepilot rather than an RCX. The codepilot accepts touch sensors. I've read ( (URL) ) that you tell the RCX to treat the reed as a touch (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot, lugnet.trains)

I have connected both a RCX and a CyberMaster to a CodePilot (and also to a MicroScout). I don't remember if I tried connecting also a Spybotics, but I think it work too. CodePilot accepts VLL codes but only the *Batch* VLL Commands, to make a VLL (...)

I don't have a Code Pilot but I am interested in getting one to play around with. I understand that I can use my Scout to program it using VLL. On the Micro Scout fiber optic cable can be connected to the light sensor using a technic half pin. Is (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot)

| | RE: How to make a barecode?
|

From what I understand of VVL, CodePilot and MicroScouts: The CodePilot has pre-programed "macros" burned into ROM. Each has it's own id-code, so that's why the book can use a one-barcode "program" for each factory standard model behavior. So, I (...) (21 years ago, 6-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.codepilot)
