Help Accessing BS2SX additional space

Archiver

Hi all,

I just got my shiny new BS2sx and am trying to figure out how I am
supposed to store programs in the supposed 8 slots. Is there some
command I put in the beginning that tells where to send them?

Chris

Thanks

Section 4 of the manual (and "Compiler Directives" in the help file)
covers multi-slot programs. The short answer is that you need to modify
your $STAMP directive (in your main program [noparse][[/noparse]slot 0]) to load any
additional slots. Like this:

' {$STAMP BS2sx, Slot1Pgm.BSX, Slot2Pgm.BSX}

This article from Nuts & Volts will show you to put active code in extra
slots and call it from the main program:
