I am fixing this right now.

The current legOS sensor read cycle is this (i=illuminate, c=A/D
conversion)
S1: iii iii iii ccc
S2: ccc iii iii iii
S3: iii ccc iii iii
S4: iii iii ccc iii
If you find your sensor 2 readings to be still accurate, maybe a better
cycle would look like this:
S1: iii iii --- ccc
S2: ccc iii iii ---
S3: --- ccc iii iii
S4: iii --- ccc iii

| In writing some sensor code yesterday/today (it's 6 am), I passed over the ROM sensor code at 14c0. The documentation has been put in the usual place. The rotation code is pretty simple: the expected state machine, with split points between the four (...) (26 years ago, 25-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
