Creating a user interface on the B2-SX
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
You could take a look at Jon Williams' June 2000 Stamp Applications in Nuts
& Volts (http://www.nutsvolts.com) if you need pointers on setting up such a
user interface using LCD & keypad. I'm sure that the transition from BS-II
to BS-2SX should be straight-forward.
