Reset

Archiver

I'd like to mount a button on the outside of my enclosure that resets my
BS2. I'm doing this to generate a quasi-interrupt when the Stamp is
listening to the serial port. My question: How do I connect the button to
the BS2? Can I hook the button up, somehow, to the reset pin?

One easy option I've considered is just turning on and off the power,
perhaps even hooking up a momentary switch to the power just for that
purpose, but I'd like to avoid that since I'm also powering nine stepper
controllers and a couple of other app cards in the same enclosure.

Thanks for any help you can give.

I did this same thing by putting a pushbutton attached to the res pin and to
ground. works a charm.
