Thanks for your thingiserve link ;) i'm going to try to print one ;) I was looking for but in france it is more expensive than in US for example.

hi Thanks for the answer an picture... that evident, if mine had one, i would have seen it ! do you think it is possible to add one easily ?

Hi i saw in a document that it is possible to powering a RCX mindstorm (yellow one) by a jack plug in? I've a 1.0 and a 2.0 and didn't see any jack plug in? can you help me to find it? Thanks

Yes ! you can see my signature now ;) thanks a lot.

Thanks ;)

ok... sorry.

yes ! i don't know, i'm going to have a look

Hi all i coming here and i'm fan of lego train ;) I'm french and interested by automation by RCX (in train, not on track) Is there a bank of pictures like those :

Excellent thanks a lot

Hi I'm looking for the english name and building instruction for the fret wagon, in the banner of this site, on the right, (white, black and blue) just under search field ? is it fonctionnaly ? have you got other example ? i'm looking for one which could carry bricks, and be decharged ? another question, without any link, how do you have your train pictures in the signature (i mean the picture, not how to add picture in the signature) thanks by advance

If you just have a look to this video, from one of the first 3 link : from http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=45495 the 1 stud bar code is possible then, on this vidéo : from http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=45440 controling train, with different configuration, with RCX don't seem to be a problem :) in fact, both ar from Toastie, i hope he is still here and will can help me, because, everything is already done i think ;)

hi i tryed to make a post for building a standard RCX train controller, and your way of work is very impressive. a second member has made train reading track information in order of making interactions, and i hope a mix should be created ;) can you help me ? Standard RCX Train controler

Hi can you help me with the bar code reading ? I tryed to create a post where share a "standard" rcx train controlling here, and i think i need your help ;) Standard RCX Train controler

So As promised, just take a look at this loco : http://railbricks.com/instructions/gp40-rcx/ Just click on download to take a look at the instruction book, the RCX is totally integrated with this way of building. I Think it is adaptable in a wagon, not you French TGV ;) I've started a specific post for share with the RCX control train : by this way, we won't be out of subject in this post ;) Standard RCX Train controler

Hi all ;) I'm starting this post in order to try to put on a standard for RCX controling Train Aim of the project : The aim is to define and share a standard to control train by RCX bricks. Why RCX brick : There is severals reasons : the first one is that it is a full lego solution, instead of an arduino solution, the second one, the RCX can be powered by 9v pickup from rails. Then, the RCX is able to control 3 outputs, that should be 2 motors, and one light, it can use swiths, rotation captors, optic captors, and it is now not really expensive. What i have found at this time : best RCX integration in a loco (most of mine would be in a wagon and not loco) : http://railbricks.com/instructions/gp40-rcx/ more integration and exceptionel controling (for RCX septics) : http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=45440 (here!! if the member can help me:) another here, with interaction with track : http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=45495 (if member can help me too !!) My wish : my wish is a mix of those link. I would like to control train by RCX, if possible by controling the speed, as on the second link and had track reading by swich of bar code reading, in order to not only have a train moving, but had stops (fret and passenger should have different stops), speed increasing or decreasing, pause, and, why not with technic, having optional bar code (if two train are too near one from the other). I think for the begining, i'll do wagon with RCX, and loco motorised, later, i'll look for more RCX and dedicates them in spécific loco as in the third link. List of action (work open and in progress) : 1 Stop in passenger station 2 Stop in fret station 3 increase speed 4 decrease speed 5 pause x second (different than stop, because follow by every train, RCX shoud know if it is a fret or passenger train in order of good interpreting bar code) 6 not identified at this time ? so... what do you think about this,

I'm coming back i'll show you an loco that is less than a 8 stud width with the RCX inside after diner ;) in fact, i think you should convert a wagon for the RCX, than the loco, and convert it in technic wagon, and not passenger wagon ;)

no problem to share information :) I'll start a news post, i hope tomorrow, in order to not going out of subject of this one

thanks for your rapid answer. By manage train, i understood control train. I try too to control train by RCX brick. In my mind, loco should only have a motor in, and RXC is in the first Wagon. By this way, i can have more train than i have RCX brick (at this time, 2). I don't have Rotation sensor, i understand that must be better to have constant speed, on curve i think. But how you control start, stop, go faster or slower ? how do you send message to the RCX ? is there a connexion with sensors along the track ? or is there a RCX along the track, and IR communication to control the train RCX ? as i said, i tried out with code bar on the track, that should permit to send 6 or 7 different message (slow, fast, passenger stop, fret stop, pause, tut tut, etc...) but reading is not efficient and to much light perturbed., click should have a better reading but, might be longer, so may be less message would be possible. i'm very interested by RCX control, i can give you my code, if you want, maybe we can grown them up together. a, i've instruction for a complete RCX integrated loco too ;) if you are interested, i can give you link ! Sorry, very poor and school engish, i'm french ;)

hi how do you manage the train with the RCX ? i tried out with reading barcode, but it was not usable, to i'm looking for using the "click" information with switch. thanks, elicend
