Yes, that requires the RCX to receive. What I am looking for is a function which is much like the "is RCX in view" in the direct mode. This function allows the IR tower to detect any RCX in range, even the RCX is in in idle state, but just on, .... (...) (21 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) Not sure what you mean here. You could certainly program some RCX's to "ping" each other to determine if they are in mutual IR range. RCX-A sends out a message & listens for a reply, while any other RCX that "sees" such a message immediately (...) (21 years ago, 10-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hi I understand that Robolab has a feature to detect if the RCX is in view thru the direct mode. However, this only means it has to face toward the IR tower which connected to the PC. Then, how about the way a RCX's capability to detect the whether (...) (21 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

This is cool! Thanks a bunch. In terms of feasibility and more sophisticated coding, I would perhaps think coding in NQC will be more desirable as far as teaching high school or college kid. My assumption, of course. ---...--- -------- Elizabeth (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jul-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hi I know how to put in a simple loop to, e.g., zero out an array of containers in inventor level 4. But, I found this on the net, it is nice and neat for loop - loops through 10 times to zero out 10 containers. All that was included inside a (...)
