 | | A/C Adapter for RCX 1.0
|
|
I bought an RCX with an AC adapter jack and an AC adapter from Pitsco. They arrived today. But when I opened the adapter I saw that it outputs 12V, not 9V. It's an old Dacta AC adapter from 1996 (copyright date on packaging). I already tried using (...) (20 years ago, 30-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

(...) Hi John, It does work. The RCX appears in the Spybot's World Table. The Range is set to Anywhere. Pretty cool... --Jay (21 years ago, 29-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Boy, this RCX to Spy IR comm thing is sure going the right way! The SPYBOTICS are a little known and hidden LEGO gem. Gramps Eddie & Grandson CJ (21 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I presume that somewhere that data is being dropped. It isn't showing up as data the tower reports to the operating system. I haven't actually tried the function I posted the other day so it is entirely possible that a Spybot will not (...)

I'm a little surprised that the Spybot doesn't need to see the packet header byte - the byte containing the range/orientation bits preceding the 0x8n Ping byte. The header is deliberately generated with the stop bit cleared to force a framing error. (...)

(...) Yes, that is what another person told me via email yesterday. So a ping simulation function for an RCX running the RCX2 firmware could be: // nLinkID = 0-7, where 0 = no link, 7 = pc link, 1-6 = controller link // nMyID = 8-255 (minBotID = 8, (...)

I have been adding some button functionality to key_handler() in program.c. I have been getting numerous compile errors like "address 0xb016 of getaddress.dc1 section .bss is not within region ram". It seems to occur when I increment an int (e.g. (...) (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

This is a reposting of a message I posted yesterday in just the Spybotics newsgroup. I forgot to add .rcx and .rcx.nqc so I thought it was worth the double post. My apologies. (...) Okay, after banging my head against this for WAY too long I think I (...) (21 years ago, 24-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
