(...) The light sensor is an active sensor, which means that it requires power to operate. When you call ds_passive, you are no longer supplying power to the sensor between readings. Some people have reported being able to use the light sensor for (...) (25 years ago, 28-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Some months ago, I posted this question, but got no response. I've finally played with it some more this morning and have some observations: 1) After setting ds_active, my light sensor returns values of 0-100, as I should. 2) After calling (...)
