(...) Sounds like an ideal application for an RCX input multiplexer: (URL) You can then have 12 switches on your RCX to measure two positions on each of 6 legs. Using the thermometer setting on the ports, each combination of switches is (...) (19 years ago, 29-Jul-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, FTX)

hi kevin and steve it should be the first moc where the rcx would be let's say a slave to pneumatic circuit am i right guys :D pixel "Kevin L.

(...) Yes, it should be just as doable as it would be with the quad-242 circuit. You could either use four switches to examine the timing circuit, or two switches to examine a leg. (...) ;^) (...) Kevin (19 years ago, 29-Jul-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

(...) Will this new central timing circuit allow you to attach touch sensors, so, if you wanted, you could track the state of the walker with an RCX? Just curious. :) Steve (19 years ago, 29-Jul-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

I am currently working on a eight legged walker that may end up being ssclagorpion, but who knows. It is using a new central timing circuit that should allow it to complete the walking sequence in four piston transitions. I had been in a DA for (...)
