Serial communication with Stamp 2 Carrier Board
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
I am using a 24p on a Stamp 2 Carrier Board. I am using it for
datalogging and need to retrieve the data after the logging is done.
But now I find that SEROUT with pin 16 does not work - the Stamp
manual says this board can only be used for programming (pg 294 in
the SEROUT section.)
That seems a bit odd - it's a great board for making a circuit for
final use.
But, now that I have the circuit done, does anyone know how I can get
SEROUT to work with a PC communication application such as Hyperterm,
RealTerm or anything else?
Even this simple command does not work:
SEROUT 16,16624,[noparse][[/noparse]"Hello World!",CR]
but is does work in a debug statement...

I just downloaded what claims to be the
Stamp 2 Carrier Board docs -- BUT its
the BS2P Dos compiler/loader. What gives?
If possible, would some Parallax person
correct this?
Meanwhile, I thought the same pins were
used for programming and 'SEROUT Port 16'.
Is this not true?
Do note that the DTR signal needs to be
set 'FALSE'. Most of the programming
boards have a capacitor in-series to
ignore the DTR whatever its state is.
If you are wired straight through, the
DTR state can hold the BS2 in reset.
Also note some 'good' 232 device MUST be
sending TX idle, to give the Stamp its
RX-Out voltage. That could be your
problem.
