  Using IR Remote within pbFORTH
 
I'm trying to work a project for class using a Mindstorms kit. I want to program the system using Forth, but I've had two minor glitches. 1) Is it possible to download the firmware from an old DOS system? I've had no problem using NQC, but the (...)

  Adjust Switch Time
 
When you made a Motorized Switch Point, if you want to use RCX to control it, this switch time is important value, a suitable time is better to switch point. You can find my AdjustSwitch.c for legOS, that can help you to do this. (URL) (23 years ago, 28-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.trains)

There are two bricks involved. Hostmask is 0xf0. (...) (23 years ago, 24-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
