ok, I have a real question.
I'm interested in sending messages between RCXs using only the sensor ports.
I've tested and found by switching between active and passive, signals can be
sent, however, when the port is set to active, it is not powered 100% of the
time (power is turned off to read sensor).
Is there a way to switch the power on, and keep it on, until I wish to switch it
off?
Also, I only want this change to affect one sensor port, not all three.
Finally, can someone tell me how long the sensor power is off, when reading an
active sensor?
Thanks
Steve

| (...) Take a look at the functions ds_power_on() & ds_power_off() as defined in the dsensor.c kernel file. When you've set the sensor to passive mode, you should be able to manipulate the sensor power bits using these functions[1] or just use the (...)
