 | | I need to borrow a USB Tower.

I don't post to these groups very often, being mostly a lurker, but I am attempting to make a contribution to the world of lego robotics. I am working on what will be an open source version of the spirit.ocx. In fact it's been available as an alpha (...) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|

Well the concern there is that RIS2.0 uses a USB IR tower - which is not natively supported by W95. If you can get USB working, then you might be alright... HTH, James. (...) (24 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)

Has anyone succeeded in getting the upgrade to work on less-than-minimum-requirement PCs? In their infinite wisdom, LEGO has "upgraded" the minimum platform for the RIS. I'd like to be able to run it on my existing machine. Moving up to W98 is (...) (24 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)

| | RCX remote control and the use of PICs
|
|
hi All, Inspired by some applications of the 16F84 PIC, we came up with the idea to make a IR-module, which is capable of doing all the InfraRed tasks we could imagine with the RCX. Well it hasn't come so far, but we have build a RCX IR-remote (...) (24 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi all. Just a simple question, does anybody know if there is anyway to stop rcx beeping everytime i turn it on or off. It is terribly annoying at 2:00 in the morning :-) Thank Francis (24 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, sorry if off-topic, but perhaps anybody knows if there is anyway to communicate with RCX through my laptop ir port. Actually I connect with my Palm through COM4, but when I set Bricxcc to this port says can't find robot. Thanks Francis (24 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
