if((BATTERY/0x0016)<700) dlcd_show(LCD_BATTERY_X);

I always put this line on my programs.

BATTERY/0x0016 gives the value in V*100 of all batteries open circuit voltage.

<700 is the limit for rotation sensors to work (all the other sensors have
lower limts) approximatelly 1.2V per battery

dlcd_show(LCD_BATTERY_X) lights up the display of dead battery.

Hello, Is there a way to find out the battery life on the RCX in legOS? I checked this group and the documentation, and I can't find this info. Thanks, Nils (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
