  Multi-RCX Communication
 
I see a lot being done with communication between 2 RCX units. I was wondering if anybody had done anything with RCX communication with more than just 2 RCX. (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  laser distance sensor
 
Hi I'd like to build a laser distance sensor for my mindstorms robot. Does anyone know if any plans of circuits of such sensors exists? Andreas (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RIS 2.0 upgrade CD? (part 3805)
 
(...) What are the differences between 1.0 and 2.0 firmware? I prefer VB to the supplied software anyway, so that makes no difference. Mark (20 years ago, 3-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
 
  Re: OS X Complier problems solved--now struggling with BrickOS
 
(...) I have reached the same stage as Rich had about a year ago: demos behave exactly as above. I couldn't find any further follow-up of this thread - I would appreciate any hints where should I look for ideas. I use cross-compiler and (...) (20 years ago, 3-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: RIS 2.0 upgrade CD? (part 3805)
 
The Mindstorms SDK 2.5 is still available, which includes the 2.0 firmware. If you don't want the actual 2.0 version of the graphical programming software then this should be all you need. (URL) (20 years ago, 2-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
 
  Re: Updated BrickOS Command Reference
 
(...) Dave, This is good to see. You may have done this intentionally, but 'sleep' and 'msleep' are both listed twice. Also, under cputs and cputw, it says '(only forst 5 characters)' and should be '...first 5..' I've never been able to get the (...) (20 years ago, 2-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Add motor driver to RCX
 
(...) Yes, I suggest making an inertia circuit for use with trains, but for cars something else might be better. In RCX float or braked modes the power H-bridge flywheel diodes will brake the motor, but in high power applications, how often is float (...) (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Add motor driver to RCX
 
(...) Good idea. It will be difficult, though, to determine the differnce between braked and floating motor setting, or am I wrong? Or maybe one should measure the resistance on the RCX terminal, when no voltage is put out. I thought of invading the (...) (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RIS 2.0 upgrade CD? (part 3805)
 
(...) Noone has it listed on Bricklink right now, but there was a recent Mindstorms survey held on LEGO.com that hints at the possibility that they might be coming out with an RIS 3.0 sometime in the near future. The other alternative is to see if (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RIS 2.0 upgrade CD? (part 3805)
 
I'd like to upgrade my RIS software to 2.0, but it would appear that Lego no longer sells it. (URL) says "Sorry this item is not available in this country." I called Lego shop today, and they confirmed that it is discontinued. Perhaps someone knows (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
