(...) I had a similar experience. In fact, it happens to me fairly regularly. I believe I've traced it to bad connections in the tower's serial cable. After I fiddle with it the problem usually goes away. (21 years ago, 9-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Interesting. I do own a couple Spybotics, although I'm not sure I've ever even put batteries into them, and I think (80% sure) they were in another room at the time.

Hi! I recently bought another rcx, but when I tried to use the remote control it didn't respond. I can use the rc to control the old rcx, so the rc does work.

Hi, The sys_time variable is the basic timekeeper for BrickOS. It is a 32-bit integer that is incremented every millisecond by the kernel.
