wireless RS232
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
Hi folks,
I got a question you might be able to help me with:
I got a wireless rs232 device that would be a big help for me because I
often have to programm stamps from a distance.
The device works fine, it transmitts data from the stamp to my pc (when I
use the serout command) and the debug also works fine.
Only when I try to download a program into the stamp the stamp will not be
found. The pop-up tells me to check the loopback connection.
So I connected pin 6 and 7, on the pc side as well as on the stamp side, but
still it doesnot work.
A) Does anyone know how the program verifies if a stamp is connected?
Does the download use a different protocol than the debug?
C) I know there is a parallax product for this purpose but it is much more
expensive that the device I have and it seems you cannot connect many
recievers to one transmitter which you can with the device at question.
Thanks a lot lot lot for your help, Uli

duplex" like Ewave's Super Screamers. So far they are the only ones I have
tried that will do what you want.

Documentation is also available from the above link. I've used these for
wireless programming
with the Stamp, and a wireless boot-loader for the PIC, and they work quite
well.
