Is this a bad thing?

I am using the parallax serial terminal to "Debug" my software.· I am using pins 30 and 31 for my debug out using the programming stick as my interface.· Now I cant program my prop anymore.· Am I dumb here?

·- Was it pin 11 or 26?· Hmmm....··I think the smell of smoke tells the whole story.· Must be 26.

    Hi Michael.

    I think your problem is that the serial terminal keeps the serial port open when you're trying to program the propeller. Only one program may access a serial port at a time (even the USB acts like a serial port to windows). In the BASIC-stamp editor there were integrated debug terminals that closed their ports when you are trying to program. But now when the terminal isn't integrated into the editor the terminal keeps the port open and won't allow the editor to access it. In other words, try to close the terminal or to close the connection in the terminal when you're programming your propeller.
