Interesting question.
I'll try this at home with my remote and RCX loaded with standard firmware.
Anyway, that could only say that the remote control knows that it has to
send a OFF (brake) cmd to the RCX when fwd and rev are pressed together,
right ?
One info I can give you: The brake state simulates a perfect short-circuit
of the two poles/wires. I know this because I use it to simulate the
Pressed/ON state on the input sensor port of another pBrick (be it a RCX or
a CyberMaster).
