2 BS2s, 1 computer?

Can a person run two Basic Stamp 2 modules with one computer, using a serial port card, or two USB ports?· I've got a project with 16 sensirion shtxx temp/humidity sensors, which require 2 I/O ports per sensor.

Thanks !!

    Charlieknox,

    Yes you can. However, if you are going to continue to program each one you might want to use a $PORT directive in each program, so you dont over write a program when downloading. Using the $PORT directive will allow you to designate a COM port for each of the BASIC Stamp 2 modules, and only download to the specified COM Port.
