bs2 help

Latan Pace

Hi! everybody I,m trying to use the bs2 with the speak jet to say the temperature number and also the time .
I,m using the ds1620 and the ds1302. Any help with this will be great!

Welcome to the forum!

Try and narrow down each block and get them working individually:

BS2 and 1620:

BS2 and DS1602:

BS2 and Speakjet:

I'm sure others have codes that they might share. I haven't done anything with the SpeakJet.

Does anyone else a know a place to gets the remaining Nuts & Volts and the Appkit code?

This project uses the DS1302 and DS1620.

Welcome to the Forums, Latan Pace. Have you gotten the BS2 to work with anything individually yet (either the Speakjet, the ds1620 or 1302)? That's your first hurdle, just making sure all of your hardware connections are good so you can read both modules and speak.

Do you have the companion chip to go with the SpeakJet? If not you'll have to send the SpeakJet allophone addresses.

If you don't have the TTS256 chip, you might want to consider purchasing the RoboVoice chip rather than the TTS256 since RoboVoice costs less than TTS256 and does the job of both the SpeakJet and the TTS256. As you can see from the video on the RoboVoice product page, it works well with the BS2 (the BOE-Bot video was made by erco).

Latan Pace

Yes I have the TTS56 companion chip as well as the speak jet also. I made a board for everything I,m trying get working, If you have a program that can make it say the time and temp
number I would love to see it! And Thanks and advance.

I've only used the SpeakJet with the Propeller. I don't have any examples for it using the Basic Stamp.

Do you have the individual components working? If you've made a custom board you should still test the individual components with existing test code to make sure they work alone before trying to integrate them.

Of course there's no challenge here, but I have several of these $7 talking clocks and they work great. Speaks time & temperature hourly and/or when pushed. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-LED-7-Colour-Change-Glowing-Digital-Alarm-Clock-Talking-Clock-Thermometer-/271265986512?pt=US_Clocks&hash=item3f28b677d0

An economical alternative to a $49 BS2 + $60 Emic-2 plus RTC and temp sensor.

The large LCD display and 7-color internal LEDs are a bonus.

Gees erco, where's the fun in that?

erco

Huge fun, Andy! I collect talking clocks & watches. I have over a dozen and they all go off every hour, fairly synchronized. Oops, there they go now!

To paraphrase Davy Crockett - Make sure you(and your equipment and connections) are right and then go ahead on.
