I've had a report that fast firmware downloading doesn't work with the • latest
release of BricxCC (either tower).  In my tests, with an RCX 1.0 brick • plugged
in, low ambient light, short distances from the USB tower, and all the • firmwares
I have access to I am able to download in fast mode just fine.  In several
attempts today I did experience 2 failures, but the vast majority of • attempts
worked correctly.  My serial tower is currently unavailable to test with, • but in
testing a couple weeks ago it also was working fine with my 1.0 brick with • it
plugged in.  Can anyone tell me whether they are able to use fast firmware
download with either the USB or serial tower with the latest release of • BricxCC?
I'd especially like to hear from RCX 2.0 brick owners.  I don't own an RCX • 2.0
brick so I haven't ever tried to download in fast mode to that brick.

Thanks in advance,

John Hansen

I have never been able to get bricxCC to properly download the firmware
either.  I'm using a serial tower and a 1.5.  i always have to do it from
RCX CC.

(...) Same for me. I'm using serial tower and 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 RCXs. Downloading from NQC works fine in both modes. Mario (21 years ago, 4-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
