Well, the purpose would be that it would save me the trouble of recompiling the kernel every time I have to download to a new RCX. I might end up with as much as 8 of them. Other than that, I was just curios. Torkel Luis Villa <liv@duke.edu> wrote (...) (26 years ago, 31-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

As far as I know, there is no way to access it. Why? If you intend to use it for unique identification for networking purposes, you can go into the config files in legOS and change the network address there... Luis (...) ---...--- "Going to (...)

There is a serial number printed on the RCX. Is it possible to access that serial number through the hardware, or is it only printed on the outside? Torkel (26 years ago, 31-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) This sounds correct. In C, this is how I do it: /* Delete the firmware */ *(char *)0xffcc = 1; (*(void (**)(void))0)(); Indeed, *(void (**)(void))0) is the reset vector, whose value is 0x03ae. 0xffcc is timer 0.
