Stamp Works Experiment #34

gnrstmpr87

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum.

StampWorks Experient #34 uses RS 232 port.
But I would like to communicate my Basic Stamp 2 with my laptop (Windows based) using USB port.

Does anyone know how to connect BS2 with USB port of a laptop computer?

Thank you

Welcome to the forums!

You should be able to use the USB-Serial adapter that you program the Basic Stamp with:

Just change it to the RS-232 DCE plug, (X13 on the schematic).

Welcome!

User unsoundcode researched this topic heavily a few years back. I'd suggest a forum search on his name.

What Basic Stamp 2 are you using?

Board of Education?

That program demonstrates hardware flow control, so you will need a USB-to-TLL adapter that includes RTS and CTS signals.

This should work.
