RoboRemote provides:

Did you know?
RoboRemote is better!
RoboRemote is the only PalmOS software that can control the Lego Scout due to its critical timing window. Other Lego remote software can only control the more forgiving RCX.

It's Free!
RoboRemote costs you nothing to use. All you need is a copy of OmniRemote™ installed on the PalmOS PDA that has RoboRemote loaded on it.

Get More Control
The OmniRemote™ Development Kit gives you complete control over Lego Mindstorm communication. In fact RoboRemote was written using it and complete source code for RoboRemote is included in the kit.

  • Complete duplication of all of the buttons on the geniune Lego remote control including some combination button "presses".

  • Support for the difficult to control Lego Scout controller. (Other remote software cannot control this timing-critical unit.)

 

Resources:

  • The RoboRemote (Zip File-10KB) contains everything you need to get started. Here is a listing or what is included in the file:
    • RoboRemoteDoc.txt
      Complete information on how to use and install RoboRemote on your PalmOS PDA.

    • ORLib.prc
      The OmniRemote™™ library that is needed for versions of OmniRemote™ below v1.2.

    • RoboRemote.prc
      The RoboRemote software.

 

Final Considerations:

  • The RoboRemote package contains the OmniRemote™ Library (needed to run RoboRemote) If you have OmniRemote™ V1.2 or later the library is installed automatically. Earlier versions of OmniRemote™ require the manual installation of the library. In order for the library to function, you must have a registered copy of OmniRemote™ or be within its 15 day evaluation period. The evaluation period is 15 days of actual use, rather than calendar days.
