  rcx tools setup
 
I have following problem with setting up the rcx tools (the old ones, distributed with legOS-0.1.7): I set up the Makefile.common to properly point to my paths: TOOLPREFIX=/home/eri...tachi-hms- LEGOS_ROOT=/home/eri...gOS-0.1.7/ when I run make I (...)

  Re: RCX-enhanced egcs
 
I just downloaded the new rcx tools, unfotunately the gcc dies (segmentation fault, even if I run the gcc only (with no parameters). any ideas what's going on? does it require glibc2.1? any settings? TIA erik (...) (25 years ago, 4-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  New pbForth 1.1.0
 
Finally, the pesky stack bug and the goofy double echo byte problem has been fixed. Thanks to Sergey Udovenko I have also integrated a little "splash screen" on the LCD that lets you know pbForth is up and running. (URL) Will get you there. Please (...)

  Re: Connecting two RCX's
 
(...) Another case would be where you also want to use IR for doing radar. If you had IR messages bouncing around for both radar and communication, it might confuse the radar algorithm or generate incorrect readings. (You'd also have to reserve a (...)

  Re: Connecting two RCX's
 
(...) For example if your RCXs are facing opposite direction or if there is a door between them, etc. etc. In such case a wire would be better than IR. Ciao. Marco. (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: legOS
 
(...) I found a reference to the article after manipulating a url to their table of contents. (URL) story isn't their yet but you can see a short description of it. (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Connecting two RCX's
 
Joost, You could try connecting a motor to one of the outputs of RCX A, attaching a rotation sensor to its axle and connect that to an input on RCX B. I can also think of different combinations like lamp/light sensor, motor/touch sensor. I'll keep (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Connecting two RCX's
 
(...) Actually, the sensors run on 9V too. Why would you not want to use the IR port to get them to cooperate? The "message" system built into them makes this the IDEAL way to communicate, expecially since you won't be tying up a sensor input or a (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Connecting two RCX's
 
Hello, I have two RCX bricks and would like them to co-operate without using the IR-Port. Is it possible to communicate by attaching a motor port of the first RCX to a sensor port of the second? As far as I know the motors work on 9V and the sensors (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  legOS
 
This may be old news to all of you, but I haven't seen anything on the list. The November issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal has an excellent article by Marcus L. Noga about his baby, legOS. It is a _must_ read for legOS users, and a _should_ read for (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  IR
 
Hi All. Is there a way to set the IR transmitter to something like 'long range mode'? I would like to have a more powerful beam for proximity detection. I've tried lnp_logical_range(1), doesn't seem to make a difference. The problem is that I don't (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
