(...) Hi Mike, Unfortunately there is no possibility under Robolab 2.5 that the RCX might itself access the data collected in the log. Robolab 2.5 is based on LEGO-firmware 2.0, which has many new features, but not this one. If you want to do your (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

A cautionary note for situations where RL 2.5 and 2.0 co-exist as in schools which are in transition to upgrading their software.
