Hi, Jason.
Try learn from the IR tower itself. If that works, you make it learn what
ever you want. All you need is to use RcxCC or similar software.
Reading from the RCX IR emitter may be a possibily also, but you will learn
only messages this way.
Please give us some feedback. I believe other people will be interested in
this feature also!
cheers,
Mauro
