    Nuts and Volts #115 covers I2C memory. Download the column and programs at www.parallax.com/html_pages/downloads/nvcolumns/Nuts_Volts_Downloads_V5.asp

    Guys doesn't I2C connect to the BS2sx-pe? I only have the BS2 IC.

    P.S. the EEPROM is the one that is on the BS2.

    Bugg,

    You are looking for the READ and WRITE commands in PBASIC. The help docs do a pretty good job of explaining it and show sample code.

    The sample programs and circuits listed in Nuts and Volts #115 works with ANY BS2 version - including the original BS2.

    Sorry, Jim. What I meant to say was that the EEPROM is the same as, but not
    the same one, that is on the BS2.

    Bugg,

    According to the datasheet which you should already have downloaded and at least browsed through, it has an I2C interface. Forrest has already pointed you in the direction of the Nuts & Volts article which, as Forrest has also pointed out, contains sample code that works on all stamps, including the BS2. Download it, read it, and start playing around. Just playing around with something trying to make it work, then asking key, well focused, questions to get you past a stumbling block will usually teach you much more in the long run.
