LOAD same code into 10 BS1 Stamps at same time

How to load the same code into ten BS1 stamps at the same time?

I can connect 10 USB cables and let each stamp grab a com port.
The Editor screen brings up a window with a choice of each com port.
But this method only handles one com port at a time.

    Humanoido,

    There is no way to do this with the existing hardware/software. I think the inherent problem would be timing issues (specifically, time-out). In any event you’d have to do it one module at a time. If you had OEM Modules and a gang programmer you could burn the same EEPROM code to all at the same time and drop them in, but that really doesn’t apply here. Take care.

    Thanks Chris

    In view of that discussion, I think the USB/Editor approach is the next best thing, as it will be simple to implement, and can rapid fire out code to the menu choice of processors. However, if some other applicable ideas come up, feel free to mention it.
