  Re: controlling rcx with remote control
 
(...) I've been trying to find the same thing. I believe the latest version of BrickOS has the ability to read a remote control, but I haven't spent the time to figure it out, yet. Check this out: (URL) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  controlling rcx with remote control
 
Hello, I'm new to this newsgroup but I need help with an issue... I'd like to control my rcx (with legos) with a tv remote control or likewise. I'm not a happy owner of the standard lego remote control and therefore I can not use the patch from (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Wall wart for RCX 1.0
 
I use Radio Shack part number 273-1631. This has a selector switch which you should set to 9v for the RCX. The output from this particular transformer seems to be modestly stable, only rising to 10.5 volts or so off-load. This stays well within the (...) (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: TOWERAPI.DLL: Where is TOWERAPI.LIB file in SDK 2.0?
 
I struggled with this same problem you've encountered (even trying the method mentioned in the post you referred to). I decided it was easier for me to just load the DLL at run-time instead of using an import library. Here's what I ended up doing: (...) (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Wall wart for RCX 1.0
 
Any 12V supply will do. It should be capable of at least 600mA. The Lego train transformers work well if you have one. Otherwise, any 12V transformer of any polarity will do (or even AC as the Lego train transformer supplies). Matthias Jetleb (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: template resizing
 
(...) I didn't see those entrys when I was trying to fix the problem. (...) Pressing F9 is what gave me the template in a window the size of my cursor. Anyway, I "fixed" the problem by thaking a shot in the dark. I went into the (...) (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Wall wart for RCX 1.0
 
I have a RCX 1.0. And while it has a power plug, I don't have a wall wart. Is there a specific part I need from Lego, or will a "generic" wall wart do? And if so, what are the parameters (voltage, current) I need to look for? Thanks! (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  TOWERAPI.DLL: Where is TOWERAPI.LIB file in SDK 2.0?
 
I'm trying to use "TOWERAPI.DLL" to directly setup the USB tower drivers in a Windows C++ program using Microsoft's Visual Studio. Lego's documentation refers to linking with "TOWERAPI.LIB" but this file is not in the SDK 2.0 release. In an earlier (...) (22 years ago, 2-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
