<snip> (...) Hey Esger I'm not an electronic specialist by any stretch of the imagination (though not by lack of trying) But commercially available DCC controllers and stuff mostly run at 12 volts (from the research I read), but the RCX runs at 9 (...)

(...) As I run 12v stuff I dont know the 9v motor good enough to comment on the capacitors but I dont think it's that good an idea to use a resistor to drop the voltage. Use one or more (zener)diode's instead. Esger (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

(...) I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you saying that you want Program #1 to start when you press button P1 and stop running when you release the button? This isn't how the remote works, but you could just have your program send the Stop (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

(...) Oh My Goodness! This is what I've been waiting for--when I priced out DCC controllers, they were 200+ CDN... If I can get one of my many RCX's to do it, well that's entirely another matter.

Hello All, I've completed a new bit of firmware that enables the RCX to act as a DCC Command Station.

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 (...)

You may check out javastorms at www.javastroms.org. The project seem to be abandoned, but the code is available. Basically it does what you aim for so it should be a good starting point. I have used the code as base for some of my own projects and (...) (21 years ago, 26-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
