Hello everyone: Is it possible for the NXT to send Run Program commands from the
NXT to RCX via a light sensor? Here is an example:



1- The NXT Ultrasound sensor detects an object close by, triggers the NXT light
sensor to light up at 20 percent power.

2- The RCX light sensor detects this event (both light sensors are very close to
each other) causing it to run program 1.

3- The touch sensor is triggered, the NXT light sensor to light up at 40 percent
power.

4- The RCX light sensor senses this event causing it to run program 2.

And so on.

I have the NXT to RCX communications adapter from Mindsensors but I have no
programming experience. Thanks.

John

(...) No. The light sensor can have the red LED either on or off - you can't set it to "20%" or something like that, and there's no way to toggle the LED fast enough to mimic or RCX-style IR message. But... You could cetainly have a program (...) (18 years ago, 5-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
