(...) Yes, I misspoke, indeed from a place of incomplete understanding, sorry, thanks for helping. I did mean to say x 10:EF 10:EF works fine. Like you, if I try x 10:FE 10:FE, I see it echoed but then I see no further reply. And yes x 10:FE 10:FE (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Several posts have speculated about the use and necessity of the "header" bytes used by standard RCX messaging. Hopefully this post provides definitive information on the topic. The ROM firmware uses a 30 milli-second inter-character timer. If if is (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I doubt anything (short of a 2MV Lightning Flash) will warm anything in 1 msec. ;) Also, the receiver won't warm up until the header has been read in completion and decoded. So I doubt it's used for that. Normally, in any communication, you'd (...) (22 years ago, 2-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
