DEBUG Window for Propeller?

Hello:

I a just getting started with the propeller chip.·

I have been reading the documents and have not been able to find
if there is a way to output data to the screen, like the Basic Stamp's DEBUG function.

This is probably a real basic thing that I just am not 'getting'.

Thanks

Marc

    Any of the serial I/O drivers can be used for debugging. There are several in the Object Exchange and two of them (Simple_Serial and FullDuplexSerial) come with the Propeller Tool. You simply use I/O pins 30 (Tx) and 31 (Rx) for the serial I/O and that will use the same serial port used for programming. On the PC end of things, you could use the Propeller Serial Terminal (installed with the Propeller Tool) to take the place of the Stamp Editor's DEBUG window.

    Thank you.

    I am kinda new to this.·

    Is it 'cool' just to say thank you this way, or is there a better way?

    My opinion: it don't have to be cool. It just should be honest

    best regards
