Howdy, I purchased the RIS for the first time on Saturday, Yeah! When I pick up the RCX, out of the box, the green back cover fell away from the unit. I'm so happy to find that that is where the batteries go! But I'm seeing this kind of thing all (...) (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) If you have NQC, just issue the following command: nqc -sleep 0 I'm not sure if there's any way to do this from RCX Code or Robolab. Dave (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) If you set the delay to zero, the RCX will not shut off. I don't remember if the RCX Code software can set such a delay, but I know for certain you can send an opcode to do it. There are many documented ways to send opcodes if you need to go (...) (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, How do I turn OFF the auto shut off function of the RCX? I'd like to write a program which contains some long (1hr) delays. Thanks for replies, MTapsak (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

As far as I have noticed, they haven't had any problems. However, I have (...) (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)

Rob, Did you ever get any answers to this query? I also have three of the newer Technic motors that have seized. (Out of a collection of about 10 motors that's a 30% failure rate - not good!) I suspect that this may occur with lack of use rather (...) (25 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)

Thanks Dean, where did you get your info - have you an inside source? Or would you have to kill me if you told me??? I was kind of hoping that the next RCX would be a bit smaller. Some nice Lithium ion rechargeable batteries. Some more I/O. More (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
