  Re: Expanding the available input/output ports of the RCX
 
Ram Meenakshisundaram schreef: (...) You could use the sensors that came with the Cybermaster kit, they have a built-in resistor so it should be possible to hook up two of those on one input port and by using RAW values see which switch is pressed.

  RE: Expanding the available input/output ports of the RCX
 
Sure you can try using just three input/output ports, but eventually you end up scaling back you designs. Of course, you can always buy another RCX to increase the number of ports, which will throw you back $200. Adding a multiplexor is such an easy (...)

(...) [imho] It's sometime very creative to build your own multiplexer as it is a part of the project. [/imho] The site of Michael Gasperi has a lot of informations about those input multiplexer : (URL) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Expanding the available input/output ports of the RCX
 
(...) How about coming up with creative solutions within the limits of the hardware? In the real world, you can't always make it bigger and better, sometimes you have to do it another way. It's a much more interesting problem to "do it with only (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Expanding the available input/output ports of the RCX
 
Hi, With only 3 input and 3 output ports, the RCX becomes quite limiting after a while. There are several different solutions to this at various sites. Does anyone know which one is the best out of all of them. I basically looking for good (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I am new to this message board so I am sorry if this topic has already been covered. I have been tring to make, but have been unsuccessful. The OS that I am currently trying to use is legOS 2.3. I keep recieving the error message: h8300-hms-gcc.exe: (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Caution when using DCP container constructs
 
In Robolab 2.0 the eight DCP container constructs store the raw value of the sensor. This means the value stored is not in rotations, volts, dB, etc. but in a raw measurement of these values. This raw value cannot be easily used with other Robolab (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Minor bug in DCP sound sensor support
 
Robolab 2.0 and 2.01 programmer extras has a bug in the DCP sound sensor construct "Wait for increasing sound". This construct sets the sensor type to touch when it should set the sensor type to light. The other sound sensor constructs "Wait for (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
