BS2 being recognized as a BS2pe

Help! My BASIC Stamp HomeWork Board is not being recognized as a BS2 (it is a BS2 HomeWork Board) and instead is being recognized as a BS2pe40. I am using a USB to Serial adapter ( a PL-2303 XA / HXA chip). Also when I try to change my program to a BS2pe to see if it will run on the HomeWork Board it gives me a communication error. What should I do? Should I try another USB to Serial adapter?

    You have to tell the Stamp Editor that you have a BS2. There's a menu choice (Directive) and a $STAMP directive either of which can be used to specify which Stamp model you have. See page 43 of the Basic Stamp Syntax and Reference Manual.

    If the editor ID function is telling you that, def try another USB adapter. Radio Shack has one that works.
