  ANNOUNCE: Lego::RCX.pm 0.8 (old RCX.pm)
 
All I would like to announce the release of version 0.8 of Lego::RCX.pm. This perl module allows you to communicate with your RCX. It has been developed and tested under Linux, though it most likely will run under other UNIX's. To find out more (...) (25 years ago, 27-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Odd behavior
 
Well, it looks like I beat everybody to a solution. Except that I didn't. Oh, don't get me wrong, it works now and everything. The thing is, I don't know why. I spent some time today figuring out how to recompile the OS, and doing so. That didn't (...) (25 years ago, 27-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Odd behavior
 
I always feel a bit stupid replying to myself, but I realized I didn't give exactly what happened when the program download failed. When I run dll, it successfully deletes the old program off of the RCX, and then sits there occasionally popping out (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Odd behavior
 
I'm having a bit of trouble with dll and I was hoping someone kind on this list might be able to help me out. Basically, I have a program that's grown to become fairly large and complex, and I can no longer download it to the RCX. There's one (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Using ROBOLAB for FIRST LEGO League
 
(...) Our team used Robolab for the 1999 FLL competition and the programming was very easy for the 11 year olds. We noticed several teams who struggled with the limitations of RIS. How can we get the word out that Robolab is a viable alternative to (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Second source for DCP sensors
 
Does anyone know of a second source for the new sensors the RCX now supports? These would be the DCP microsense sensors. If you thought the Lego sensors were expensive at $10-$28 USD, the Lego prices for DCP sensors start at $50. They want $95 USD (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: printing on more than one page
 
(...) students (...) on (...) I have not found any Robolab solution to printing large programs. Robolab 2.0 has not changed this annoying limitation. I use screen print programs to print Robolab programs, which is not very convenient. (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Robolab 2.0
 
Robolab 2.0 is out, and the software is much improved. Robolab 2.0 now supports more programming structures, more sensors (sound, ph, etc.), and the RCX datalogging feature. In my opinion 2.0 now compares very favorably to nqc. Robolab 2.0 is the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
