Hi All,
Since I am and train head I don't read .RCX (this topic might be well
exhausted)

I just read thru a third party book on the RCX and in one place he said the
timer granularity in 1/10 sec and in another it was 1/1000 sec.


The timers run at 1/10 sec, but granularity for "waiting" a task is 1/100
sec.  The PWM used for motor output has granularity of 1/1000 sec.

p.s.  I hope it wasn't my book that stated 1/10 and 1/1000 - if so could
you e-mail me the relevant page numbers to I can publish an errata for
it?  Thanks.
