Stampers,

Just trying to program my first BS2e.

It tokenizes OK, but gives me a "hardware communication" error when it gets
to the download part.
What could be wrong?

Current setup:-
- Genuine BS2 serial cable being used
- Stamp powered by regulated 5v supply
- Cap in ATN line
- Compaq Contura 410 Notebook (programs other serial devices no probs!)


Stocky

    Stocky,

    Do you have a palm pilot with hotsync loaded on your computer?
    If so it can cause these sorts of errors and make the stamp software
    think it can't get to the stamp.
    If you do have palm pilot or hotsync e-mail me asap at
    mhr_54@h...

    Sincerely,
    mhr_54
