(...) Mmm, yes. I was thinking about things like SetTimer and GetTimer, so that wakeup handlers can be used... as things are now (if I am not wrong) one has to directly work with the ROM... /Vlad (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Before anyone replies to my previous message, found the problem. I have a light over my desk and this was interfering with the IR transmission. Turned the light off and moved the RCX a little closer to the tower and hey presto, all OK. Does legOS (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi I installed the win version of legOS and downloaded the firmware legOS.srec to both my RCX's. The older RCX from a 1.0 set seems to accept .lx files OK the first time after the firmware is downloaded. The new version will not accept any .lx (...)

I did some more experiments last night. My conclusion is that the majority of apparent 2-state transitions never actually occur (that is: the sensor does not actually travel through 2 states between two consecutive sensor readings). The order of the (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi! Did anyone write any 'nicer' wrapper functions for handling the RCX timers? Or am I blind and can't find them? 8^) /Vlad (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi! Maybe this is obvious for all experienced legOS users - I am displaying the values read from the light sensor on the LCD, and I get values of ~30 for light and ~520 for darkness... This seems very strange - is it the display wrong, or are these (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I have replaced my batteries without erasing the firware several times. The trick is replacing the batteries one at a time with the brick turned off. You have then several (10 or so) seconds between each replace. If you leave the brick switched on (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Probably related to the garbage on the lcd that you get when turning off the RCX with a sensor active: if there is a light or rotation sensor or a pressed touch sensor connected to the RCX when you download firmware legOS will crash immediately (...)
