(...) I may be wrong, but I opened one of them and don't find any resistor ?!?! Are there perhaps different versions of touch sensors ?? Or is the black contact in the switch the resistor ?? (Or is a 500 ohm resistor in the RCX at its input ?) (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) It's like this : ^ 1 O_/_O 4 | | 2 O O 5 3 O O 6 ^ - marks the yellow button _/_ should be the switch 1 and 2 are connected 4 and 5 are connected the switch is between 1 and 4 (or 2 - 4 or 1 - 4 or 1 - 5) Understandable ???? Rainer (25 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) I've been thinking about this. It would be great to use it as a switch but I haven't found the logic in it yet. I've used some trial and error to try to find the correct wire positioning but I think I'll have to bring out my multimeter and (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

(...) Yes you can ! It isn't anything else but a momentary switch ! You have to connect your wire to one of the two pins on the right and one of the two pins on the left.

I never bothered picking up a Mindstorms set, as I have enough trouble finding time for more traditional building and I know I wouldn't get good use from the RCX. So I don't have a touch sensor of my own. But I'm wondering if it can be used for (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
