Hi Mitchell I'm Carlos...
I'm new in this things (well not that new, I've been learning from parallax
books)
I'm Interested in your program, right now I'm studying VBasic 6.0 (Just
started yesterday, but I learned a lot). In Nuts&Volts Magazine (vol.21
No.8) I saw a program written in VB that used a GUI to control several
Stamp I/O lines with just a few buttons, but I don't know completely how it
works.
Can you tell me how can I send information through a COM?
And please send me your program.
Sorry about my english I'm from venezuela and I'm only sixteen.
Atte: Carlos...

Yes ... this technique works very well ... I'm currently using this
technique with an SX-28 to control 8 relays. I wrote a client program which
runs on my PC that will send a single byte via the specified COM port. The
SX receives the byte and outputs it to RB which is ultimately connected to 8
relays. Each relay corresponds to a single bit in the byte sent. Using the
Windows scheduler, I scheduled several executions of this program at key
times and that now makes up my lawn sprinkler timer! <g>
If anyone is interested, email me off list, and I'll send you the program.
