BS2 with Microbot teach mover

I recently bought a microbot teach mover robot arm. It is pretty cool but I would like some way of using the bs2 for program storage. Also if one could offer any suggestions of how to interface the two would be cool. I do know the robot can be controlled in basic.

These are the links to the robots documentation:

and
http://www.cosc.brocku.ca/~bockusd/TeachVal/TeachValII for the manual

Thanks for any help offered [noparse]:)[/noparse]

    The commands are sent to the arm through the serial port but what is sent is the thing you will need to figure out. You could connect the computer running the interface to one running a terminal and see what is being sent.

    You could take your wife (or mine - guaranteed to work) and just tell her you want to stop in at the hardware shop and buy a few power tools !!!
