The LEGO pieces you get with the Ultimate Builders Set are a nice addition to any collection. However, the software with all the instructions for all the models only runs on the PC.

We use Robolab software and the RCX on our Power Macintosh G3. Will the Ultimate Buiders Set work for us in that environment? Dean (22 years ago, 8-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Pieter, I'll take a shot at it... It's possible you may be experiencing a transmission problem on the RCX side.

This note is of interest to people who build their own RCX firmware. It provides some additiional insight to the recent post concerning dual use of upper memory range and the motor control register.
