Chapter #4 Activity 6

I am having problems with Robotics With the Boe-Bot chapter #4 activity 6. Specifically, getting the EepromNavigation.bs2 program to work. I have attached the file. Perhaps someone could look at my code and spot a problem. Initialization (FREQOUT 4, 2000, 3000) works and then Boe-Bot just sits there and laughs at me. I have"groomed" my program to make my Boe-Bot go in a straight line and make precise 90 degree turns. So, my counts and pulses differ slightly from the book. Anyway... any help is appreciated.

    It appears you've forgotten the "READ address, instruction" line in the DO UNTIL (instruction = "Q")...LOOP. Forgetting this instruction would cause your Boe-Bot beep and remain stationary.

    For more information on how the READ command works, see Robotics with the Boe-Bot page 148, as well as the BASIC Stamp Syntax and Reference Manual page 369.

    Hope this helps, and happy developing!
