  Mystery Part
 
The part I am having problems with is the dark-grey "foot pedal" looking part. Does anyone know what this is called or what it's used for? This has been the single biggest mystery to me since I bought the RIS kit over a year ago. (23 years ago, 19-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Hardware Hacking of RCX
 
Considering that LegOS talks directly to the hardware, this seems like a good place to ask the following questions. I am yet again frustrated at having only three inputs and three outputs on my RCX, and am wondering at the possibility of hacking the (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Drive a motor using the sensor port - safe?
 
I accidentaly discovered that when the sensor port on the RCX is set to light sensor type, a motor connected to it will run. The motor can only run in one direction with a low torque, but it can be useful when you just need the extra motion and (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

That's a 1/3rd reduction in price and almost as good as the $150 that Future Shop online had last year. Now, how do I (...)
