*Embarrased look* sorry I shouldn't of missed that..
Sorry to hassle you but I am stuck yet again. The lnptest program just records
collision after collision. I have no other IR devices in the area (as far as I
know anyway) It doesn't display any of the data I am sending it and the RCX
doesn't show anything being recieved either.
Any ideas/suggestions please ?
