  RCX.pm questions
 
So, I've finally found a little bit of time to play with RCX.pm, and it is pretty cool. However, I'm having lots of problems convincing the RCX to actually do things :) it appears that in many cases, the first signal sent to the RCX is always (...) (25 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RCX Power
 
Does someone knows the power specs for the RCX to connect it to the home power? Thanks. Tet (25 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Motor Sticking
 
(...) I have about 16 motors and I have had, out of the box, 6 motors DOA... Other friends have more then 20 motors with 0 failures... I can only guess that I'm cursed with motors. S@H will replace ALL your dead motors... They did for me. Once when (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: RCX: Loose Assembly?
 
(...) Oh oh. Sounds like a fault. You'd better phone LEGO and get it replaced. Otherwise you'll be unhappy for life. NONE of mine do anything like that. They are, and pardon the pun, built like a brick. Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Auto Shut Off
 
(...) Ok, to set the time out with RCX code you must hit the Oroboros (the sideways 8) and it will never shut off. This can be found under "Getting Started" then the far Right option on the bottom. Hope that helps. Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Auto Shut Off
 
(...) If I remember well there is an option on the RCX Setup (Advanced) page that will allow you to modify (and also switch off) the auto off delay. Jan (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Motor Sticking
 
Lego customer service is really good about this (as has been written before on this newsgroup). This is a known problem with this motor. On the suggestion of the various posters, I called up Lego Customer Service (number listed on their web site and (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)

(...) them (...) hand. (...) When I first got my RIS, on a finny sunny christmas morning :) I eagerly built my first bot, only to watch it veer off to the right, at first I was puzzled assuming I'd messed up the power settings, but eventually I (...)

  Re: Motor Sticking
 
Gaurav, Certainly isn't in my case, these motors are stalled so bad I can't get them to move at all now unless I stick a 24t gear on them and turn them by hand. Even then it requires considerable force. The cables I've tried on these motors work (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.technic)
