Hello, I was wondering if anyone out there has information about the RCX sensors (touch, light) and how they communicate/interface with the RCX itself. Perhaps schematics. Many of the links out there right now do not work. Any help would be (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I'm looking for Mindstorms RCX users in the northern Chicago metro area. Are there swap meets or competitions or working groups? I'm using legOS and emuLegOS in a Linux environment. (22 years ago, 25-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi! all, Thanks for the replies, now I can use one null-modem cable with 2 DB-adapters to construct the cable for the RCX communicatoin. But the cost is about US$5.5. If the shipping fees to HK were not so high, I would perfer to buy the default (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

(...) Its a universal cable. Just about any null modem cable would do, but not all cables are null modem. Try using lejosfirmdl and see what it says. (...) That's right. (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

Is there a hardware difference between the RCX 1.0 and RCX 2.0 in regards to the IR? Or is the difference eliminated by firmware? Jude (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

The cable is wired as a null modem cable (see (URL) If that's what you have, then it should work. A couple of other questions: 1. When you try to download the firmware does the green light on the tower come on? 2. Have you set RCXTTY to the correct (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

Hi, all! I've just bought and got a IR serial tower from bricklink but I haven't a default lego serial cable. Originally, I think ordinary RS-232 DB-9F to DB-9F cable can be used instead, but I fail to do the firmware downloading under Win98 RIS UI (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

Hmm well i would like to see the lnpd ported to windows but, the client is a very good start. WinLNP was pretty much useless so any code you can put out would be very helpful. Good luck with the porting, Jason Hensler (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Richard, A little known fact is that if you "punctuate" a number with any of the following characters ,./-: you will get a double on the stack in the old FIG Forth. so 123-4567 will put the double value 1234567 on the stack. So why doesn't 0= get (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
