| As anyone already tried, using LASM, MindScript or NQC, to program a Spybot and explore it's comms capabilities ? ...be it with a Manas or with a RCX/Scout ? Anyone tried the VLL output and input feature ? thxs, mc. (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| (...) Yes, there's a MindScript "vll" command (for the SpyBot) that works just as described in the Scout SDK. It uses the red LED on the back of the SpyBot to output commands. This same LED is also used when programming the SpyBot, so you have to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| After doing a little more sleuthing, I was able to find out how to process incoming IR and VLL messages. And yes, thankfully, VLL decode is built into the firmware! The following is some SpyBot MindScript code that will handle both incoming VLL and (...) (22 years ago, 19-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| WOW! :) Thank you very much Mark ! Cool, it's all true then :) The usable firmware VLL input together with RCX/Scout IR messages output and the Manas/Spybot IR input. So now I can have a setup like: Cybermaster--VLL->Sp...IR->Manas, eh ! :) so (...) (22 years ago, 20-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| 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)

| (...) Hi Mark, am I right, all you have described above only works with a RCX2.0-hardware cause of the changed IR-interface? Is there any chance to communicate between Spybot and RCX1.5 (with 2.0 firmware)? If there is no, I will have to buy a (...) (22 years ago, 10-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| (...) You already have an RCX 2.0. Aside from printing "RCX 2.0" on the plastic, the RCX in RIS 2.0 is identical to the one included in RIS 1.5. Since you have downloaded the 2.0 firmware, you should be all set. Dave (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

| (...) Sorry, think I have mixed some things up. People from the Lego hotline told me the ir-interface of the RIS 2.0 RCX has been changed and communication to a spybot is not possible. Are these changes only because of the usb-tower and do they have (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
