How can I display a debug terminal onto the computer screen. The·Basic Stamp uses Debug to display·a·feedback terminal I just don't know what the·Propeller calls it.

    You'll use the FullDuplexSerialPlus object along with the Parallax Serial Terminal (PST). A google search should turn up the correct thread where this is discussed.

    The Propeller doesn't have a specific debug statement or technique. You can use TV_Text or vga_Text to display data on a TV or VGA screen respectively. You can also use any of several serial I/O objects to send information to the same PC that you use for programming. Simple_Serial is one such object. There are several others that would all work. There is a Propeller Serial Terminal program that substitutes for HyperTerm to display information, but any terminal program will work. You specify I/O pin 30 as the receive pin and I/O pin 31 as the transmit pin as show in some of the demo programs.

    PC Debug is another object that could be used. There is either a Propeller Educational Lab or a Nuts & Volts article that describes its uses.
