Javelin and RFID Reader

Probably a dumb question with a quick answer, but is the Javelin compatible with the RFID Reader available from parallax?

I'm assuming that since the stamps are digital, there should be no problems, but I just want to be 100% sure before I order the parts I need.


Thank you

    I haven't tried it either, but as you point out, Javelin Stamps and BASIC Stamps are electrically similar so there should be no issue.

    4ish,

    ·· If you are familiar with serial communication on the Javelin, you will have no trouble.· The RFID Reader uses·2400 Baud Serial, and the enable line is not absolutely required to be toggled, but that's simple a matter of making a second pin HIGH or LOW.
