Is there a way using Robolab to display the value of a timer on the RCX • LCD
display?

Yup.  In RL2.5 Investigator, select through the palettes as follows:

Datalogging & motors > RCX Communications > Set Display.

The 'Set Display' icon looks like the RCX's LCD panel.

You need to hang two modifiers off it.

On the left, a numeric constant representing the number of places after the
decimal point.  So, with a timer that measures in 1/10 sec, you would set
the decimal point constant to '1' to get a reading in seconds.  The default
is '0'.

The second modifier would be a 'Value of the x timer' (white diamond with a
blue border and a colored clock inside) where x is either red, blue or
yellow.

Cheers

You can also set the display in RL2.5 Programmer as: Functions > Rcx Communications > Set Display Another cool way to find quickly the function is by selecting the function by name. On any of the function displays, click on the search button (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
