Hello Does the Vision Command camera send messages to the RCX via the IR port ? I would assume this would be the case but I just wanted to make sure. Also, does Vision Command come pre-configured with a default program or do you have to configure it (...) (24 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi everybody, I recently acquired a RIS 1.5 box and started playing with nqc (great program btw)... Still, I have some questions...

I use the Keyspan TWIN adapter (USB to serial port) along with a simple mac-to-pc style serial adapter (I think it came with a Pilot 1000 many years ago). The TWIN adapter is a bit pricey, but I bought it because it also works with externally synced (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Okay, but don't I have to buy a second adapter so that the IR cable can fit in the Keyspan PDA adapter? Or like cut up and change positions of the IR-cable inputs? Or do I just have to buy an adapter, connect it, connect the IR tower, download NQC (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I have had no difficulty using NQC on iMacs with a Keyspan PDA adapter (USB to DB9). The adapters run about $39US. The adapter comes with the necessary drivers that allow NQC to see it. Have fun! (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Dave, I just wanted to say a BIG THANKS for all your hard work and continued efforts with NQC. Some people debate whether they should stick with NQC or move to Lego's new format.

Ok. Linux builds (i386 and src RPMs, tar.gz) now at (URL). I still need to work on the man page and docs. I'm probably going to start using one of the compile farms to make versions for other architectures and packaging systems. After I do the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
