In my latest and greatest idea I intend to run two RCXs together to control a
fairly complicated arm.  To do this I need to communicate with two RCXs from
my PC (the program is actually going to be controlled from my PC).  Now I
haven't had much luck getting my RCX controlled from my PC using legOS, so I
was going to use the OCX provided but I haven't found a way of controlling

control two RCXs in any way with OCX or does anybody know of any help I can
get on controlling RCXs directly with legOS.  Any help at all would be
appreciated.

Rob.
