Mike,

If you're interested, pbForth replacement firmware may
be the answer for many of your issues.

My serial driver for the RCX is a straight half duplex
that turns off the receiver when transmitting to avoid
echoes from the IR.

It could be modified to allow it to talk to the
BlueTooth module, if  I knew more details about the
actual interface.

You can drop me a line if interested at rhempel@bmts.com

Cheers, Ralph

Subject: Bluetooth and firmware query


As some of you may know, we have been hacking RCXs and adding bluetooth modules.
What would make life easier is some help modifying the firmware to increase the
speed of the serial protocols to the max the Hitachi chip can handle, which is a
lot faster than the 2400 that the IR comms uses. Can anyone give me some
pointers?

Mike
