Tokenize

jdinchico

Im setting up my BASIC stamp and i'm to the point were you enter the first program. I have typed in the command and i get an error code that says "unable to tokenize" Can anyone tell what I'm doing wrong?

Can't tell what you're doing wrong without some information. For example, are you talking about the Stamp Editor? Did you just start it and open a new program window? What did you type in that window? What did you do after that? What operating system are you using? Did anything unexpected happen during the installation?

Yes I am in the stamp editor. i started typing the info from the book. "Whats a microcontroller" Stamp bs2 etc. etc. I'm running this on XP. And yes I had problems getting it set up. When i connected the usb and checked it with identification it said yes to "Loopback" And "No" to echo. But now the has identified everything after reinstalling.

Exactly what did you type?

jdinchico

' What's a Microcontroller - FirstProgram.bs2
' Basic Stamp sends message to Debug Terminal.

' {$STAMP BS2}
' {$PBASIC 2.5}

DEBUG "Hello its me, your BASIC Stamp!"
END

I just now copied your code (as posted) into my copy of the Stamp editor and it tokenized OK. So the problem must lie elsewhere, not in what you typed.

You might try uninstalling, then reinstalling the Stamp Editor with a fresh copy from Parallax's website.

I copied Your code as well, It Tokenized fine.

Have You restarted Your computer lately?
