(...) I think there might be an explanation for this and I've been meaning to post on this topic, but never seem to have gotten around to it! :-) I've opened up my RCX 1.0 and the IR receiver has the markings "TSOP 1138" on it. After looking this (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) we ' ve told about this thing with Philo few days ago cause he had the same problem. So I' ve made several tests with 4 RCX: 2 RCXv1.0 and 2 RCXv2.0 . It seems RCX emitter is the same in 1.0 and 2.0 versions. But 2.0 receiver is less sensitive (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Progress so far (2 URLs) I have a feeling I won't be able to stabilise it further until I can get better sensors.... This is a slightly modified Steves Legway program with two standard sensors moded with some black paper to hide the red leds cheers (...) (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I have been working on creating a single (large) installer for cygwin with everything you need to build brickOS (and leJOS as well). Download one large file (which is, unfortunately, 18.9 MB) and you are ready to go. I've tested it on W2K and it (...)

Hello, In this mail I want to advertise my Lego emulator, again. This emulates a Lego RCX brick on hardware level, so it should run any firmware you like. You can find it at this URL: (URL) can emulate multiple RCXes communicating via infrared and (...) (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks Chris I had seen Henriks posts before but for some reason forgot all about it (I suspect an irrational Java aversion) I think the fact that Steve has published his code makes his solution more attractive to those of us who would like to try (...)

(...) Henrik Dahlgren posted here several months back saying that he had successfully built a LegWay using standard LEGO Light Sensors instead of the HiTechnic Proximity Detector. I don't know how much code modification was required, but here is his (...) (21 years ago, 22-Sep-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
