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)

(...) I've got to try BrickCC as well. I'm not surprised at the light detector performance. The light pipe is good, but not that good. It depends on light entering the tube pretty much perpendicular to the end. You would need to have a LOT of light (...) (22 years ago, 19-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

It's pretty nice to program my Spybot with BricxCC. It's just like working with an RCX. But I'm having a problem getting a reliable reading from the light sensor. I'm trying to make the spybot follow a line, but unless I have very good lighting, I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

MindScript syntax highlighting, improved error reporting (over that provided by ScriptEd) and Spybot support (one talking to the RCX via the USB tower and the other talking to the Spybot via COM1) is even cooler. :-) In case anyone else would (...)

(...) 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)

| | Spybotics To RCX Comm
|

Hi Agents, Just in case this hasn't been mentioned before, it is possible to send an RCX message from a Spybot to an RCX. I cobbled together the following MindScript programs and downloaded them using ScriptEd. Basicly, if you press the spybot (...)

What are the specs of these units? How much memory do they have in them? Also, is the ROM in a Flash ROM or not? Thanks (22 years ago, 15-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
