Hi, great advices, thank you all. In the meantime, I purchased 2 more NXT bricks which gives me more freedom, but doesn't make it more easy. I think I will now, setup a RS485 network, and use motor multiplexers on each port, this must do the job. Once I get it running, I hope being able to get back ...

Excellent, Thank you. So if I need to control up to 27 motors, I could use 1 single NXT brick. Just confirm if this is correct: - 3 NXTMMX multiplexer on each of the 4 sensor ports, which gives me 24 motors - 1 motor on each "motor" port = 3 motors Can this be correct? Thank you Patrick

Do you know if I can put a NXTMMX on each NXT port? I was looking to find out how many I could plug into 1 NXT brick.

Thank you

Hello mattalen37, Thank you for your reply. from what I understood in your post, I will need to go for a wired solution which is not a problem at all for me. Just to explain a bit what I am doing: I set up multiple rigs using each 3 motors and 1 maybe 4 or 6, which I want to move up and down at some...

Hello, Thank you for your replies. Well, I guess it is not being an easy thing I want to make. If I don't use BT, this could make it much easier, don't you think? I will have a look at the multiplexer solution, maybe it gives me what I need, or at least an idea. Now, taken one constraint away from m...

Hello, I am about to add my motorization to my new construction, but would like to have some advice please. I need to move several "structures" at same or differed moments. Each structure will have either 2, 3 or 6 motors, which should not all move a the same time. But all motors need to &...
