I have a conveter cable so I finally did some tests with NXT-G and here is what I find-- RCX motor runs in both directions, and responds to the speed settings. The touch sensor works. The light sensor measures ambient light. But the bad news is that it does not generate light when that option is selected in the light sensor block. The rotation sensor block would not read the RCX rotation sensor. The sensor block does read the rotation sensor in raw mode, which is just as hard to use as raw mode in the RCX.
