| (...) Hi Roger, Thank you for your help, it is a bit strange that you dont see any problems, since it is the same protocols we are using. I dont think the joystick is the problem since I have the same problem with inputs from keyboard or mouse, but (...)

| (...) I could not repeat your experiment exactly because I don’t have a joy stick. So instead I wrote a pair of programs that send single byte messages between the PC and the RCX. The RCX adds 1 to the incoming byte and immediately send it back. The (...)

| Hi Daniel, (...) you can do more levels by something like the Bresenham algorithm, i.e. for speed 4.5 you turn it on for 4ms and 5ms of the 10ms alternatively. Though 10 levels should normally suffice, the standard LEGO train controller has fewer (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

| (...) The simple answer is "maybe"! If you have one handy, try it. I'm not sure whether the RCX will cope with a capacitive load rather than an inductive one, so I would advise you not to put the capacitor across the RCX output without a motor in (...)
