Hi Ralph, I should be able to extract the source for the low level driver routines this week. If anyone else is interested, please email me. Note for BrickOS users: it's not simply a matter of plonking the routines into a program. The kernel will (...)

Mark, would it be possible to share the code of your DCC controller, I am the author of pbForth and would love to add the driver to the pbForth library. I've also got a servo driver in pbForth already. Too bad Hitechnic is out of business. Their (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

One way is to mount one or more magnets on the underside of the train with their N-S pole oriented across the width of the train (to differentiate it from the couplers of just any old train) and then sense these specially-marked train cars (...)

I just converted my first engine to DCC yesterday and started playing with LDCC 1.01. LDCC is fantastic! Thank you, Mark! I installed an AD330 N-Scale decoder from Model Rectifier Corp according to the directions on Tom Cook's site. At 0.8 Amps this (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

I have developed a framework of classes in C++ that encapsulates the the RCX and its communication either from serial and from usb port. The framework is based on a proprietary library of fundation classes by SYCO called G++ that can be freely (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi there. I'm conscious that SPIRIT.OCX is quite old and that now there're another ways to control the RCX from any object oriented language on the computer side.
