Did you noticed that Snaptrax remote control can directly control any Spybotic, as others remotes can't ??? I'm wondering why... - Christophe - (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

Wow, Someone who knows about this!!! First off, do you have any clue on how to access the IR port from a embedded VC++? I know how to program in C++, and VisualBasic, but how does VisualC++ work? I've never dealt with VC++, or any type of hardware (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.palm, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

I noticed that my Spybotics remote control has 3 LEDs in it, on being the small visible red one for seeing that it is working, a large white one with a flat end, and a large grey one in a normal LED casing. Also, the spybot has 3 of the white ones (...) (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) That's not true... I've controlled my RCX, Scout, and Spybotic with my iPAQ 3635 through the IrDA port. I used a demo version of "TV Remote Controller v3.0" from (URL) think those programs use the 3-wire mode of IrDA. More info here: (URL) (...)

Hi Mark, Thanks for providing the messaging listing in these posts (URL) you know if it is possible for the spybot to receive standard RCX messages (rather than serial RCX messaging that you use in your example)? Thanks, Barton... (22 years ago, 10-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
