Hello Dick, Looks great, but it doesn't seem to work well here: - counts up 2 by 2, but counts down correctly one by one - loses count, especially when counting up. My tests were done with a brand new, unmodified rotation sensor. I mounted a wheel on it and rotated it slowly by hand. The sensor works "as bad as usual" with regular firmware. I don't think I made a mistake while patching firmware... I hope you will find the problem ;o) Thanks for your time and energy, Philo

Following up from my earlier post, I have completed a firmware patch for the rotation sensors. This post contains the patch with installation instructions followed by a technical description. A long post but hopefully more than made up by the value (...) (21 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
