Hello All, I've completed a new bit of firmware that enables the RCX to act as a DCC Command Station. For those who are not familiar, DCC (short for Digital Command Control) is a means of sending electrical signals over model railroad tracks to (...)

Dear Dave Baum, Thank you for your reply. First of all, I enyoy your wonderful creation NQC very much. I also learn much from your EXTREME MINDSTORM book although it is dedicated to RCX rather than to RDS SCOUT. I successfully call almost all SCOUT (...)

Would it be possible to have two RCX's communicate back and forth with a single PC by using two Infrared towers? By enclosing one tower/RCX pair in a box you could isolate the RCX's from interrupting each other's communications. I'm guessing that (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

It's been a while since I last played with LNP but I can recall that it works well under Linux. The LNP deamon must be running on the PC before the RCX and the PC can communicate.
