Hi Tom,
You selected one of our hardest ROBOLAB projects. The journal shows you many
things, but perhaps is not explicit enough to help you through what you intend
to do with it. However note that the Soccer communication only works with the
old serial tower. The USB tower doesn't work here. The motor commands are
hidden, because the RCX programs are based on the subsumption architecture -also
explained on the pages.
Seriously missing time now, I can't help you more than this now. (I even forgot
many details, because it's a 2001/2002 project.)
-Claude

Would you not know that the serial tower vs USB tower was a question I had? I will get a serial tower and continue. (...) (18 years ago, 28-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
