Has anyone had success in installing RoboLab on a server? After installing on a windows based server the message "visa32.dll is missing" occurs. Assuming RoboLab 2.9 can be run from a server are there any maximum user limitations? (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) I forgot to mention the green light. Ever since I enabled the serial port in the BIOS, the green light will only come on now when NQC is trying to transmit, which is what's supposed to happen. But then it reports the error I provided earlier. (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

(...) Does the green light in the tower come on at all when you try to send the message? Is the light only on when you are trying to communicate? If the light is always one I would look for another application that is trying to use the serial port. (...) (18 years ago, 12-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

I also figured out what COM3 was: the internal modem. I disabled it in Device Manager and now the only port that I can find in my C# app or in Hyperterminal is COM1, the serial port. But the IR tower is still not working. By the way, the built-in IR (...) (18 years ago, 10-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

I feel kind of dumb: the serial port was disabled in the BIOS. However, now that it is enabled and is assigned COM1 (and shows up in Device Manager under Ports), I'm still having problems: C:nqc>nqc -SCOM1 -v -d test.nqc Downloading Program:Tx: 55 (...)

The light goes on as soon as you plug in the tower? Sounds like someone is already using COM3. I was looking around DELL technical support and you may have a bit of work ahead of you. First off your serial port on the inspiron 8200 should be COM1. I (...) (18 years ago, 9-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

I have a used Dell Inspiron 8200 laptop that is old enough to have a serial port. I'm trying to use a serial port IR tower to program an RCX and am having problems. When I plug in the tower the green light turns on immediately, which AFAIK is not (...) (18 years ago, 9-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, FTX)
