I've tried the RCX2 firmware (firm0328.lgo). Same results: after downloading the
firmware the RCX beeps (low battery signal) and is locked. In BrickOS when I
read the battery sensor and write it's value on the display it says 620 (mV,
Ithink) with new batteries (9.2V on six elements) and 592 or 594 with very used
ones (6.75V all six). So I need a firmware with the subroutine for battery check
disabled (software solution) or an information on what pin the Hitachi processor
reads the battery signal (in order to try to solve the problem hardware).
Other ideas?
Thank you!
Octavian
