  Re: dll 'error deleting program' with briskOS-0.9.0
 
(...) I am also encountering this same problem: - I am working with a Linux 2.6 (Fedora Core 3). - The system was downloaded successfully to the RCX 1.0 brick with firmdl3. - But I COULD NOT load ANY program with the dll utility! Each time I got an (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  An idea concerning the new RC trains and a new RCX
 
Hi, all, I know this might just be a shot in the blue sky, but anyway: Lego is most propably working on a new RCX system. At the Legofan site, there is a discussion about things that should be in a new RCX, and someone mentioned Bluetooth as a (...)

  Re: different output power at different ports?
 
(...) I've discovered a thread in legofan (URL) that talks about new features of a possible RCX 3.0. Is there more information that can be handed out? - Dave (19 years ago, 22-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Re: RCX to RCX LNP
 
Hi. (...) That would be a fun state machine to set up... ;-) (...) It only does so when it receives opcodes between 0xf0 - 0xf7 or a standard firmware message (0x55). Of the first eight, only 0xf0 and 0xf1 currently require further action, with 0xf0 (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: container in a container error
 
(...) This just was an forgotten bug that with older Robolab versions didn't harm. The solution is to remove the "Value of red container" and replace it by a blue container constant list ("User3") while selecting "RED". -Claude (19 years ago, 15-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  container in a container error
 
I have been working with the RoboLab programs created by the Convict School to help me with a project of mine and to teach myself RoboLab. Recently I found the new work done by the school in 2002 (URL) download the files and placed them into the (...) (19 years ago, 13-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: RCX to RCX LNP
 
(...) AFAIK there is no way to receive Lego-Messages, except by editing lnp.c and adding that by hand. The only Lego-Messages that brickos knows of, are those from the remote control and the "send message" opcode (0xf7). It may be worthwhile to add (...)

  AW: lejos program terminating immediately
 
Hi Jason, you have to loop within your main program, otherwise main() will be left. E.g. use while (true) { Thread.sleep (1000); } or, use a button listener, and exit when some button has been pressed. HTH, Jochen (...) (19 years ago, 11-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  RCX to RCX LNP
 
I'm trying to write a BrickOS program that I can use to check the voltage on other RCXs (which use standard firmware). I want to send the Get Battery Power command (0x30 and 0x38), and display the returned value on the display. Can anyone tell me if (...) (19 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  lejos program terminating immediately
 
Hi, I'm trying to use leJOS to display the current value of the rotation sensor I have hooked up to Sensor Port 1, but when I run the program, the RCX just beeps and ends the program immediately. Here's my code: import josx.platform.rcx.*; public (...) (19 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  RE: good way to detect the proximity of the RCX?
 
Yes, that requires the RCX to receive. What I am looking for is a function which is much like the "is RCX in view" in the direct mode. This function allows the IR tower to detect any RCX in range, even the RCX is in in idle state, but just on, .... (...)

  Re: good way to detect the proximity of the RCX?
 
(...) Not sure what you mean here. You could certainly program some RCX's to "ping" each other to determine if they are in mutual IR range. RCX-A sends out a message & listens for a reply, while any other RCX that "sees" such a message immediately (...) (19 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  good way to detect the proximity of the RCX?
 
Hi I understand that Robolab has a feature to detect if the RCX is in view thru the direct mode. However, this only means it has to face toward the IR tower which connected to the PC. Then, how about the way a RCX's capability to detect the whether (...) (19 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: ScriptEd - Question
 
(...) The MindScript compiler is very buggy when it comes to reporting the actual location of a compiler error, unfortunately. The wrapper I wrote that is used within BricxCC tries to account for the problems it has and adjust the error information (...) (19 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Extending IR communications
 
Hello all. The mirror trick works for sending the signals from the IR tower to the RCX (I'm only using a single RCX). However, the return signal the RCX wants to send to the tower isn't transmitted across the mirror. Since you mentioned leJOS and (...) (19 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Question - VB programming of RCX
 
(...) I don't know of many people who use VB to actually program the RCX. It is very possible to do, however, it's not like you may think. You can write a PC program in VB that will send the commands (a program) to the brick, but you still have to (...) (19 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Extending IR communications
 
In terms of power requirements and battery life, has anyone here actually quantified how much of a difference that makes? Its a damn good idea - as long as you have white, and relatively flat ceilings. If you dont want/are not able to reposition (...) (19 years ago, 6-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Question - VB programming of RCX
 
Hi, Are there people who program there RCX with Visual Basic (VB)? If so, where can i find info about that? I do have VB5. Regards, Ludo (19 years ago, 7-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
