| | converting Mac to PC and the Lego remote
|
|
Are there any reference pages that show how to convert nqc from a Mac to a PC version, vice versa? Or perhaps a program that will do it? I am also having some trouble with the Lego remote. It can send messages to a RCX, but I only am able to do this (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) The op-code for sending a message is $F7 "set message". Unfortunately somehow it is left out of spirit.ocx, so you have to go down to the serial protocol in order to use it. See (URL) for the details. If you want to stick to spirit.ocx, you (...) (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

|

I haven't used CyberMaster myself, but I know someone was able to get it working with a Mac. CyberMaster expects DTR to be asserted and RTS to be cleared. I'm not sure if "asserted" means +9 or -9. I know data lines (TXD, RXD) are inverted, but I (...) (25 years ago, 28-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) If you just listen to the 'message'es you send out from the RCX, you see them coming in. On unix just do something like cat /dev/cuaa0 It also works with most IRda ports, such as thouse found on the iMac and most laptops. Though I found the (...)

| | PC <> RCX Communication?

Quick question: is there a way for the rcx to send data to the PC (and possibly vice versa)? I have a scanner base built, and ideally I would like a way to communicate with the RCX, with the PC controlling the movement of the scanner. I could (...)

Anyone know if there an NQC front end similar to RcxCC available for Linux? I would like to have a point and click interface to query variables while a program is running. Joel Shafer joel@connect.net (25 years ago, 24-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
