(...) doesn't it do that already with kernel 2.6? I have a serial tower, so I wouldn't know, but it sems logical (as nqc requires that driver and it's just there for me : fc2) Thomas (20 years ago, 24-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
(...) Hi Roger, Thank you for your help, it is a bit strange that you dont see any problems, since it is the same protocols we are using.

(...) I could not repeat your experiment exactly because I don’t have a joy stick. So instead I wrote a pair of programs that send single byte messages between the PC and the RCX. The RCX adds 1 to the incoming byte and immediately send it back. The (...)

  Re: Communication Speed, PC -> RCX, LEJOS!
 
From the picture (d1_p31) it looks as though all 4 RCXs can see the tower. I don't know anything about pcrcxcomm.jar or rcxf7port; and not much about lejos, however, if all 4 RCXs try to respond to the tower, you will have collisions. Try covering (...)

Steering on the other hand would require control of two switches. Both pistons expanded (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.technic)
