B2SXOEM Hardware oddity

Hi All,

I am having a problem with a B2SX. This unit is fairly new but used on a few
projects, and worked perfectly yesterday. Today, it refuses to talk to my
laptop. My desktop will talk to it about 4/5 times, but does sometimes
refuse to. The unit functions fine once programmed. The laptop and the
desktop both talk fine to a BOE with an SX.

It seems likely a programming voltage thing, as the laptops (I hear) have
lower voltage. I have swapped cables and so on. Any ideas? Is this a classic
symptom of anything?

Thanks,

Jonathan

    Hi All,

    Well, it appears the Stamp has now died. *Sniff* It refuses to program form
    either machine. Right in the middle of a project, of course :-(
