Yesterday evening I was testing some NQC code for an RCX with the new firm0328 installed. A very strange thing happened: motor B was running when motor A was expected to do. I double checked the connections, and the code, and couldn't really (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
