  Re: BricxCC & downloading NQC programs failing
 
(...) See that is what makes Lugnet such a great resource! I finally decided to try out Bricxcc/NQC (after using BrickOS on Linux) and it worked fine when I was just downloading short "Hello World" programs, but I pretty soon ran into this problem (...)

  Re: Piggybacking sensors, but in a different way
 
(...) While you may be able to connect a touch sensor (passive) to two RCXs, I doubt that would work with a light sensor (any active sensor). Mainly, because one of them must be set to power the sensor. Normally, when the sensor is read by an RCX, (...) (20 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Piggybacking sensors, but in a different way
 
Is it possible to piggyback 1 sensor onto two rcx's? For instance, have one light sensor connected to port 1 of two different rcx's at the same time. The purpose would be for one rcx to control chassis movement, and another to control manipulator (...) (20 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor
 
(...) However I would definitely recommend 10-12V AC adapter - there are stories of people burning out the bridge rectifier on the RCX adapter input by prolonged use of DC adapters. ROSCO (20 years ago, 23-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Rotation Sensor
 
(...) Rotation sensors are still readily available. You can get them from LEGO's educational division. Check lego's web site to find the name of the educational division distributor for your area. Any 9v DC adapter that fits the socket will work for (...) (20 years ago, 23-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Bricx NQC
 
(...) I'm having a hard time parsing your english. I know that's not your fault, but it is making it harder to help you. The simplest way you can send a message to the RCX and have a program running on the RCX respond to that message is to use the (...) (20 years ago, 4-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Bricx NQC
 
(...) As I mentioned earlier, DDE messages are not supported by BricxCC. It would be possible to write you a simple utility that would allow you to send messages to the RCX using DDE, but it isn't something BricxCC can do today. Please respond with (...)

Hi, i'm from Brazil and i don't have a good English, so if i make some mistakes sorry. I'm making a project using RCX.

  Re: BricxCC NQC
 
(...) I'm afraid you can't use DDE to make BricxCC send a message to RCX. You could write software which directly uses NQC to send messages to the RCX (since it supports the standard IR message feature in the RCX firmware. I have written a small (...)

  Re: Add motor driver to RCX

  Re: Add motor driver to RCX
 
(...) The amplifiers definitely won't work. I am bringing a demo 'bot to BrickFest which uses the buggy motors with an RCX. The RCX actually drives regular technic gear motors which drive a cam shaft which operates the buttons on the 9v (6 x AA) (...) (20 years ago, 5-Aug-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
