That only means its probably time for a re-hash <g>.
First:-········ How do you connect thePolariod 6500 Ranging Module to a BS2.

Carefully, with doxs stolenfrom here:

Second :-··· How do you programme the basic stamp to read the 6500 module.


Follow all the applications notes links from the URL pointer above. The Parallax note is :

I am very new to Robotics and very new to BS2 and programming, so far all I have managed to do is get my version of BoEBoT to move to a set route along the floor, now I'm trying to get it to navigate by its self, using the sensor, any help would be appreciated.


This will keep you going for a while.
Many thanks in advance to all you Basic Stamp users


Yup

Have fun
John
