(...) Interesting, I never looked at that version. I think the one disassembled by Kekoa is 0309. Current versions of leJOS also use this upper memory to store part of its firmware (almost 3K). Jürgen (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Seeing as how there's been little traffic here recently, I thought I'd post about something I found that's cleared up a little mystery (for me at least). It concerns the RCX register that is used to control the motors. This register lives at 0xf000. (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
