Asm and PBasic

Gnix

Hi.

I have a question for you. I'm a developer and I know C/C++,.... and Assembly also; now I want ask you if I can write some application for my boe-bot (BS2) not with PBasic but with assembly?! It's possible? Yes? No? How?

Thx
Gnix

p.s. Sorry for my english..

The BASIC Stamp will only accept PBASIC.· However, if you were to use the SX Proto board, this will allow you to program in assembly or SX/BASIC.

No, this is not possible with the BASIC Stamp -- the on-board controller is already programmed with the PBASIC interpreter and cannot be reprogrammed.· What you could do, however, is purchase an SX48 Proto Board:

... and mount it on your BOE-Bot.· Now, you'll also need an SX-Key to program the board, that's a one-time purchase (you can get it separately or as part of a kit).

With the SX-Key and SX48 Proto Board you can then use SX/B (very similar to PBASIC) and assembly (as you choose) for your robot.· The SX/B compiler is free with the SX-Key software.· It's fairly simple (it doesn't do everything that PBASIC does yet), but we update it quite frequently and will keep adding features through the life of the product.
