| | RCX seems outputs different power levels

Last night I decided to redesign my point to point trolley program. I decided to connect the three RCX outputs in parallel (as suggested by some of LDCC documentation). I also decided to use one of sensor inputs to set the power setting. When I (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | New NQC API for RCX-Spybot or RCX-RC communication

Recently I happened across the MindScript headers for the RCX in the SDK and saw some interesting macros for RCX communication. I decided to port them to NQC and possibly add them to the official built-in NQC API. I would be extremely grateful if (...)
