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 an eye on this thread, I've just ordered my second RCX....

Veel plezier,

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?
