Stamp not responsive
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
I have the Boe-Bot kit and my stamp no longer responds to the BASIC
Stamp Editor. The board currently just loops the last program I
uploaded to it. When I go to upload a new program I recieve the "No
Basic Stamps Found" , when I attempt to run the Identify feature it
tests "yes" on loop and echo but no longer provides stamp info. I
was advised that a low battery issue could be the cause so I
switched out the batteries but to no success. Any help would be
greatly appreicated.

ago), and it's nothing to do with battery power, as I have seen it when
working off a mains powered supply.
Evidence suggests that: it is something to do with the relative order in
which
(a) The Stamp Editor app is started
(b) The BS is connected to the serial port
(c) The BS is powered
I have generally found that some combination in some order of
(a) Power-cycling the BS
(b) Switching to another serial port
will restore communications. This is annoying, and it would be good to hear
from Parallax whether this is a known issue (I have never had it happen with
a Javelin, but then again, the Javelin IDE is very different to the Stamp
Editor).

Type java/lang/Double was not found" out of the Java IDE. I'm sure I'm not
trying to use any floating point math...
