Hello,
I have two RCX bricks and would like them to co-operate without using the
IR-Port. Is it possible to communicate by attaching a motor port of the
first RCX to a sensor port of the second? As far as I know the motors work
on 9V and the sensors on 5V, but maybe it is possible by setting the motor
on low power?

| Joost, You could try connecting a motor to one of the outputs of RCX A, attaching a rotation sensor to its axle and connect that to an input on RCX B. I can also think of different combinations like lamp/light sensor, motor/touch sensor. I'll keep (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
