(...) USB/SERIAL you mean. (...) Yes, if it works like the PC once it's plugged in the drivers tell the OS that there is a "Serial Port" for it. Then it works just fine. (...) (24 years ago, 26-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Great info! USB IR tower sounds good, I want to use my IR tower with my iBook, but I'm too lazy to buy an USB/Parallell port... I'm planning to use MacNQC then, but AFAIK, MacNQC doesn't "know" that there is a USB port on my computer... Or will it (...) (24 years ago, 26-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I don't think RcxCC supports Scout. You may be able to get it working by setting the environment variable NQC_OPTIONS to "-Tscout" (add an appropriate set command to autoexec.bat). Another option would be to use NQC directly from the command (...) (24 years ago, 26-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) I think that should work. I have only two teams, that means I could use the same coding system you used for two robots (they just need to know they are in the same team) so I have a lot of bytes available to transmit a message.

Hi Giancarlo, I had a similar situation but only with two RCXs which had to exchange information with another constantly. Since both of them were sending and transmitting via their IR interface, the messages had to be identified and assigned to the (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I think you can't avoid phisical interference between the IR messages of the two teams, because there's no way to change the carrier frequency of the IR. With the RCX 2 firmware (...)
