I just got RIS1.0 and can't seem to get the RCX to respond using MacNQC or RCX Command Center running under Virtual PC 3.0. My cabling seems ok (using Palm 3 mac serial port adapter) as the green light on the IR tower comes on whenever I send a (...) (24 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | MacNQC Not Recognizing Firmware File
|
|
I'm using MacNQC and when I try to download a firmware file I can't see the file in the "choose file" dialog, although I can plainly see the firmware file in the Finder. Any help would be most appreciated! (24 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

The VB SDK is on the LEGO Mindstorms page under the Master Coders SDK area. A word of warning, I looks like 2.0 does not use the OCX that VB uses. You may want to explore the 2.0 software. James J. Trobaugh <james@ngltc.org> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Are you saying that if you shine a bright light into the sensor it only goes up to 47, or is that the reading you get reflected from white paper. You should get 100 when you shine a light into it.

Is there any documentation on classes for the LeJOS? How do I write a program that accesses all the motors, senors, etc? Is it worth the trouble to replace the firmware? (24 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

I've discovered the RCX is in long range mode UNTIL I send it a POWER_INIT pbForth command. Pity... what's the way around this, anyone ? (24 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

(...) This are normal values for a light sensor. The values depend on the light in the room and the properties of the thing you're looking on (with the lightsensor). I use 40 for the border between white and black and it works well. Rainer (24 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, as a newbie I have a problem in the training center with my new 1.5 RIS. The lightsensor shows only a range of 37/47 in view-mode between black and white. (and so it doesn´t beep) Is this normal or due to a msfunction of the sensor ? Thomas (24 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) "no reply from RCX" is probably not an adapter problem.
