		Uploading datalog - some confusion?
I have been playing around with NQC (RCX v2, MacNQC) and generally everthing has been straightforward (certainly more so than Robolab...) but I am having problems with datalog uploads. I can upload the datalog using NQC no problem. I then included (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

		Re: Good news (Bad Rcx of ir transmitter)
(...) Dan, my experience with an RCX1.5 is that the IR tower and RCX communicate unnerringly at a distance of (say) 20 cm under low light conditions. Also, the remote control accessory unit will start and stop programs at a distance of 6 meters (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jun-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

		Lego robot controlled by Java phone: source code
Hello, I wrote up a little article about the demonstration I put together for JavaOne. The article includes links to the source code and talks a little bit about how the pieces fit together. In a nutshell, a Java-enabled mobile phone talks via the (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jun-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

		IR Tower Use
I know this may be a bit off topic, but didn't know where else to post, I own an IR tower and remote control, and was wondering if it is possible to use the IR tower for other things. eg using PC + tower to control stereo/TV, or using IR remote to (...)

		Re: Bad Rcx's or bad ir
Dan, I had the same problem with a newly purchased RCX - turned out to be the tower. I rang Lego support, they did some trouble-shooting and finally told me to take it back and get a replacement. I managed to change the whole set, so I can't say for (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jun-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Even if you have selected which COM port (or let it select automatically) there is the possibility the signal is not getting through. Does the green light in the (...)

		Re: IR Tower Use
If you're using Linux, see if Linux IR tools can chat with a tower -- or if some other RS-232 IR device can chat with a Lego device. I haven't had time to do such tests yet. (23 years ago, 30-May-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

		Dead IR Tower
Well, after months of flaky IR comms between my tower and the RCX, I can finally say that the tower has died. :-( I've forgotten who first suggested it, but using a videocamera to see if the IR led is still functional is brilliant!

		Re: Powered Sensors
No, the RCX knows nothing about the diodes. That is why devices like the light sensor only send a current signal in the range 0 - 0.32mA back to the RCX. This current then creates a voltage drop across the 10k reference resistor with respect to the (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

		Re: IR Tower Use
(...) Not really -- the tower uses its own proprietary communcations format. It's similar enough to that used by remote controls that learning remotes can pick up the signals, but I haven't heard of anyone going the other way around.

		Re: IR Tower Use

It provides something that looks just like a typical serial port to the application, but underneath is layered on top of IrLAP (packet based link level prototocol for IrDA). This means (...)
