Let me clarify.
although it still may not be possible, I just want to create 2 lego
BattleBot like robots. A Scout based bot being controlled by one person
with the Lego Remote and a Second bot being controlled via RCX to RCX like
in the Lego RoboGladiators 1999 E3 event. I just don't want the Lego Remote
that is to control the Scout BattleBot also be controlling the RCX
BattleBot. If I can some how just program an RCX to ignore commands sent by
the Lego Remote i'll be all set.

| Hi Stephen, you will not have success with this approach, because the LEGO firmware has no collision detection (especially no collision avoidance !) for their IR protocol. So if you're using more than 2 IR devices with LEGO firmware you will receive (...) (24 years ago, 27-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
