  Firmware behaviour
 
Hi all, does the ON/OFF Button work while a program is running with the standard firmware? Or do you need to press RUN to stop it first? Markus. (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) The on/off button is always operational. It makes a great NO! STOP THAT! button when your robot is tearing itself apart accidentally. :) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) And I always thought people would strike at the red button instinctively. Well, it's the green one. legOS will behave likewise, then - ON/OFF will work even if tasks are running. Markus. (25 years ago, 28-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
