To control the mousepointer

lindb

Hello,

Is there any way to control the mousepointer with basic stamp (bsII SX) through the PS2 "mousecable"?

I'm not sure to fully understand what you mean....
If you want to simulate a PS2 mouse to the PC host then have a look here : url=http://www.colinfahey.com/2002june5_ps2mouse/
If youre looking for a co-processor that will handle to PS2 mouse and receive data from it, you may look at http://www.awce.com/pak11.htm
If you want to read directly the PS2 output of a mouse with your BS2SX, then :

This zip contains some demo BS2 files and the Core I2C routines for BS2/BS2e/BS2sx from the column "Stamp Applications" by Jon Williams.

But if you want to make the mouse to move under the control of the BS2 through the PS2 cable, then no, its not possible (there are not actuators in a PS2 mouse).
