Is there a list of Palms which I can use with my RCX etc? I am thinking of getting used one just to use with my RCX - but I don't want to by the "wrong" one. I'm grateful for any help given... as always. Scott A (25 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.palm, lugnet.robotics)

Hi, i like to do a remote control for the RCX with my old hp48gx, but i don't understand the package structure, (what is the number of the bits?, the header, stop bits, parity, how to use the opcodes....etc). Who to teach me hear?? thanks (26 years ago, 27-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

LRemote uses the same IR codes as the LEGO remote does. It is still worth trying to train OmniRemote that way though. With OmniRemote, doing the same thing in a different way can make a big difference. I don't know why. Train some buttons and see (...) (26 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

My advice? (...) (26 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.palm)
