SV: BS-1 hardware not found error

Archiver

Greetings!

Do you have a BS1?
If so, you're running the wrong editor.
(STAMP2P is for the BS2p model)

The correct DOS software can be found here:
http://www.parallax.com/html_pages/downloads/software/software_basic_sta
mp.asp

You can also find Windoooze versions there.
(You'll need the serial adapter to connect a BS1 to the serial port to
use the latest version)

All BS2 models, though, must be connected to a Serial port.
(Usually a DB9 connector on your PC)

Emne: [noparse][[/noparse]basicstamps] BS-1 hardware not found error


Hello, I have built my first STAMP's, I have experiance in building
circuits, soldering etc. this was not my first attempt so I do not
think there is any problem with the boards from that poing (though
anything is possible).

But when I try to run STAMP2P and do the Alt-R I get a "No hardware
found" error.

I first ran under WIN95 and have since tryed to run off boot disks
(one Win98 the other created with WinXP).

I have checked continuity from the DB25 connector making sure PIN2
on the DB25 corisponds to header pin 2 "PCI" on the First Step
PBASIC Micro board (same for pin 11 and 25)

I am using a fresh 9V battery and have checked and do get +5V on the
5v header pin.

What next should I look for? could it be the parallel port settings
on my laptop (it is setup for bi-directional) could it be that I
need to find a old version of plain old DOS?

any help is greatly apreciated as I am currently at a loss for what
to try next.

thnak you
Brent

Thank you Trygve

that was too easy...(or dumb on my behalf), thank you very much for
pointing that out to me, it was driving me crazy, I was up till 2am
last night tring to get this to work.

I just downloaded the latest version (or so I thought).. I'm at
work but brought one in to test with, I booted off my boot floppy
and ran the correct stamp.exe version..and this time it showed me a
device there...YEA!! tonight I'll try it out on my test setup at
home...

thank you again
Brent
