I don't have one of these, but there is a website and a yahoo group dedicated
to the TAB robot

http://www.tabrobotkit.com/ for the website

There's the problem ... you don't have a Parallax SumoBot, you have the one
made by TAB. The code and documentation for the Parallax SumoBot is NOT
compatible with the robot you have. Perhaps another list member can point you
to
code and documentation for your robot.

Hello Gregg and Jon,

Thanx for the info. As I am new in BASIC Stamp, I've
been searching for documents on how to program a
SumoBot and I've downloaded the SumoBot Manual in
Parallax's page and read through the document. I
started out with Experiment #2: SumoBot Locomotion.
Refering to page 12, I loaded the example program
given which will test the SumoBot's motors. I was
hoping to see a correct output but the robot went the
way i mentioned earlier.

I noticed that the SumoBot in the Parallax's page is
different from mine. Mine has 4 wheels and an on-off
power switch instead of a three-position power switch.
Can I still refer the manual? I would appreciate some
guidance. [noparse]:)[/noparse]
