Dear all, I have some troubles setting up WinLNP. I am new to RCX (2 months) and legOS (1 month) and have not much experience with VC6. I want to set up a line of communication between PC and RCX. I downloaded everything from (URL) and I managed to (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi, thanks for the tips, but nothing helps. I tried 0.2.5, I tried the far and near mode, I changed the lighting conditions -> nothing helped.

I use 0.2.5 in windows (djgpp), and can't get by without using the slow download option (-s). If you have lighting problems, perhaps flipping the little switch on the IR tower will help. When I download stuff at school, it helps to have it set to (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Hmmm, yes, you are right. In fact it woudn't make sense. My actual robot uses a little neural net and if battery goes low, the actual data will be sent to the PC to be saved.

So in the original firmware, the system is shut down if ultra-low battery is detected. If we don't want tot do that, we could change the ">" in the 2nd compare to a "<" to get some hysteresis. Or would it be usefull to stop legOS and do a shut-down (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jul-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

The latest CVS version of legOS adds explicit detection of CygWin 1.1 (and by extension 1.3) This did, however work anyway, with Cygwin 1.1 being detected alongside the older cygwins, due to a quirk in make's findstring - specifically, that: (...)
