Talk:Robot Controller (2003)

From FIRSTwiki

Isn't PIC a Microchip thing? Parallax just calls it the BS2sx. (Oooops, It's the BS2sx, not BS2x!)--Astronouth7303 11:46, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)

Why call it the "Full RC"? that isn't the name, and it is unneeded, there is only one FIRST robotics controller. There is the EDU controller, but that is called the EDU controller, moving back --Max

on second though, moving to 2003 Robot controller, to match the current one. --Max

Is there a legacy page for the 2003 RC like for the EDU and the OI? --Astronouth7303 17:27, 1 Jun 2004 (EDT)

Wowsers! Yes, "PIC" is most definately a microchip thing. The BS2sx was called a Basic Stamp. Stamp, not PIC. (Actually, I have the Basic Stamp book with Kamen's sig on it ... maybe I should upload it?) Anyway, as for legacy documentation, did you check the legacy documentation page? (It's there, by the way.) --Mrawls 12:12, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)

I sort of ment besides that. Like for the EDU or the OI. --Astronouth7303 12:24, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)

I'm confused. There are at least 2 specific documents on that page you might look at, which include the information on the pages you cite, but relavent to the RC. What information are you looking for that isn't there? --Mrawls 12:39, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)

The official IFI about the 2003 RC. It probably was there this time last year. But I can't find it now. --Astronouth7303 12:52, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)

IFI stands for Innovation First, Inc. I'm afraid I don't understand what you are referring to. But the legacy RC Reference Guide and RC Installation Info should provide the information you need, no? (It's woth mentioning that the OI page you reference is about the Edu OI. I don't think that's what is implied on the page Operator Interface (2003), though.) --Mrawls 13:03, 9 Jun 2004 (EDT)
