Hi, in a student research project I got the ECRobot target of the Real Time Workshop in MATLAB 7 working. So it is possible to run a closed loop from Simulink via automatic sourcecodegeneration on the Brick. Detailed instructions in german and a (...) (20 years ago, 1-Mar-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi, I'm running Brixcc on Win 98 and, during the installation process of the optional Cygwin installer, a window appers asking me to open a file named BRICXCCSETUPCYGWIN.002 which doesn't exist! Does anyone know what's happening? Thanks (20 years ago, 14-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Not to put too fine a point on it, but RUN, PRGM and VIEW are read from an I/O port, while the ON/OFF button is tied to an interrupt line. That's what lets you wake the RCX up from a deep sleep, which you can't do with the other buttons. Ralph (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) BrickOS does allow you to configure how the buttons are used. The RUN and Power buttons are read in the BrickOS "firmware", so you'd need to change the kernal, if you want to do other things with them, but it is very possible. So, yes, the run (...)

I was just wondering, can the Run button on the RCX be reprogrammed? I was thinking of a theoretical, fail-safe system, where it would be nice to run a clean-up routine after the run button had been pressed to stop the program. I reckon you'd have (...)
