BS2pe

Tumbler

Hello,

Before i purchase a BS2pe:

Is it possible to program (lets say) bank 0 for moving the boebot and bank 1 for a object detection program and run both programs?

I have 2 such programs but can't prog it on a bs2 (memory full)

regards

Multi-bank programming uses the keyword "Run". The BS2 is NOT a "multi-tasking" operating system, so it only does one thing at a time.

Having said that, there ARE bank-switching schemes, using "Run" (NOT Goto, and NOT Gosub) which will let you utilize multiple 2K program eeprom slots.

Lookup "Run" in the help manual for more detail.

Ok Allen,
Like i said 'before i purchase one'
I know that my 2 programs needs ~2k of memory.
So it's possible than to switch each program.
Example: move boebot to a point, switch to other prog and scan area. Than drive to another point.

Oh sure, but you can download the IDE for free, and click the little "check" icon to verify it will compile, and that the code will fit.

And that will also give you access to the 'help' file.

Bottom line -- using the "Run" interface is a little slow (compared to GOTO or GOSUB) but your scenario should work.
