bs2<-->rs232<-->PC serial

edited 2002-05-08 05:54 in General Discussion
I'm attempting communication with bs2 stamp send
commands to Stamp bs2, have it receive it. act on it
and send back info back to the pc when done.Leaving it
in a variable.
I downloaded an experimental small term program of
Jon Williams Qterm.bas for rs232 pc to stamp
communications. When I use it I get buffer overflow
when it gets to the INPUT$ from stamp and no
communiction with the stamp. I changed the settings to
9600, No Parity, 8 bits, 1 stop,and to match in the
stamp
serin 16, 16468, 100, NONE, char
(branches to NONE: when not receiving.)

The serout in the stamp works with debug to the pc.
serout 16, 16468, 100, [noparse][[/noparse]"works"].
prints works to the screen.
Nothing else connected to com1 or com2, using com1,
can load and run to bs2

I also tried. bioscom() example in c programming
language , no works there either.

Any ideas????

    You should be using TTL (TTY), not Rs232. The stamp runs on TTL voltage
    0 to +5 volts. RS232 uses 0 to +12 volts, and is mostly used for
    communicating longer distances. Try using TTL in you terminal program. you
    would need some kind of IC to convert from TTL to RS232 if your program
    can't run TTL (TTY). Don't you have HyperTERMINAL in your Windows
    Accessories folder? It should work fine in Win98.

    Hello Ed;

    I have received your original message six time in the last 10 minutes, you
    have something wrong with your
    communications protocol. It is sending out multiple copies of you E-Mail to
    everyone on the list. Fix this
    problem first and then maybe we can help you with your original problem. I hate
    deleting unnecessary messages all
    the time.

    Thank You !!

    Sorry about that. I sent it last nite. And when I
    checked it didn't seem like it sent. So I sent it
    again and again. My own error. I wanted to make sure
    it was sent before I signed off.

    I'm using a stamp activity carrier board, works fine
    with stamp debug,download program and run, and with
    debug receiving the info. And works fine with
    HyperTERMINAL receiving output. The stamp manual says
    it can serout and serin, this way too.

    If you are using the debug port and a "true" BS2 (not a BS2SX, BS2P,
    etc.) use
    84 as the baud constant. Also, be sure to turn hardware handshaking on
    the PC
    software off. Be aware when using the debug port that every character
    you send to
    the Stamp is echoed back (not really echoed -- there is a short circuit
    between
    the input and output.

    If you are using a BX2SX or BS2P the baud constant is different (240?).

    True! It works equally well with Debug or Serout. I have successfully
    connected to 3 different terminal progs in the HyperTERM family. I found
    that the results were consistent only when I set the term prog for TTY
    emulation.
    I'm assuming based on your previous notes that you are still having
    difficulty receiving from the Term prog via the Serin command. Try taking
    the timeout parameters out of your Serin command. This will force the BS to
    wait for your input. Then see what happens when you type in the data or
    characters. Remember there can also be issues depending on how you have
    formatted the input data in your Serin command line.

    I just downloaded the new debug/editor program for
    windows from parallax site and installed. I was using
    old dos version stamp2, could only receive debug on
    dos window but not send. New one is pretty forgiving
    between the noninverted-- 84 -- and the inverted
    --16468-- both works. can communicate both serin and
    serout. Still need to find out how to get variables
    into and out of stamp into a program running on the
    computer in basic or C perhaps visual basic. But will
    work on the ones I have at a later date. Thank you all
    for your input. It was appreciated. I am using a true
    Bs2.
