Hello all,
Totally new to StampBASIC here. Download and installed StampBASIC
v1.33. Have the BOE-Bot BS2 (the one with the StampInClass logo on
the board). How do I upload whatever is in the BOE-BOT into
StampBASIC?

Thanks.

    Well, it depends on what you want to upload... You can't upload the program
    stored in the Stamp's EEPROM (OK, you can, but based on what you've said,
    you don't want to try [noparse][[/noparse]it involves advanced equipment, and stuff I don't
    even fully understand or want to address: electron microscope, anyone?]).
    You can upload data you have stored or had the Stamp store in the EEPROM,
    but only if you've provided for such uploading in the program you've loaded
    in the Stamp.
    If you simply want to send data from the Stamp to the Stamp Editor on your
    computer, try using the DEBUG instruction (well documented in the
    instruction listing in the Stamp manual and the Help file that comes with
    your Stamp Editor).
    Comprende? :O)
    Let me answer your question a little more simply.... NO, YOU CAN'T.... OK, I
    just wanted to make sure my point was clear...
    TTYL,

    Robert: That is what I want...display what is on the BOE-BOT to the
    debug editor. I will look at the debug command..but if you know off
    hand how to do it, I would be appreciated very much if you can show
    me the command.

    Thanks again

    Well, that still doesn't really answer my question... Do you want to display
    the stored program? If so, this is impossible (or at least not feasible). If
    you want to display data you have written to the Stamp's EEPROM, this is
    possible with a READ instruction followed by a DEBUG

    |I will look at the debug command..but if you know off

    Sure, here's the simplest version...

    Stuff var byte
    ...
    DEBUG Stuff ' Stuff is the data to be sent
    rest of code...


    "Stuff" (whatever it contains) will be displayed in ASCII format in a debug
    window on your computer. A number of modifiers such as DEC, BIN, and HEX are
    available, as detailed in the Stamp Manual and in the PBasic instruction
    listing in the Stamp Editor help file.
