Hey all, Im a new member, Im using a BS2 and I am having a problem.
the basic stamp editor is not recognizing that the BS2 is connected
to the computer. when I identify whats on the port, I get the echo,
and I get the loopback, but its not recognizing the stamp. I have
tried everything I can think of, help please!!! I am using Ver. 2.0
of the parallax basic stamp editor on windows XP if that helps any.
Thanks,
Paul

Paul -
Does this happen to be on a laptop computer ? If so, you may need to set the
FIFO settings to 0 on the UART. This problem seems to be unique to certain
laptop
computers.

you'll have to check your connections and make sure that another device
is not holding the port. Common conflicts are caused by PDA synch
programs. And, are you using a Parallax carrier board or did you build
your own? If the latter, check your circuit again careful -- then do it
again.
