Inconsistencies in SXKey versions ???

Looks to me like that I can find the latest SX Key 3.2r3 on http://www.parallax.com/sx/downloads.asp.
On the same page I cannot find the SX/B 1.51.

On the other hand I can find the SX Key 3.2 on http://www.parallax.com/sx/sxb.asp.
Just below is the SX/B update 1.51.

Is there an inconsistency here since it looks like I have to go to both sites to get the latest and greatest ???

Living on the planet Earth might be expensive but it includes a free trip around the sun every year...

Experience level:
[noparse][[/noparse] ] Let's connect the motor to pin 1, it's a 6V motor so it should be fine.
[noparse][[/noparse] ] OK, I got my resistors hooked up with the LEDs.
[noparse][[/noparse]X] I got the Motor hooked up with the H-bridge and the 555 is supplying the PWM.
[noparse][[/noparse] ] Now, if I can only program the BOE-BOT to interface with he Flux Capacitor.

    Bamse,

    Download the IDE version 3.2r3 and install it. Check what version of SX/B it installs. To do this, go to Help->About and click on the version number until it comes up with the version for SX/B. If it's not 1.51, then download and install that separately. I believe that SX/B may have had a quick fix after 3.2r3, and Parallax didn't want to re-do the entire installer, but I could be wrong.
      Thanks, PeterM

    Here we go...

    The site http://www.parallax.com/sx/downloads.asp has SX Key 3.2r3 with SX/B 1.5.

    Site http://www.parallax.com/sx/sxb.asp has SX Key 3.2r2 with SX/B 1.5.
    However it has the latest SX/B 1.51 as an update further down the page.

    And finally, there is a sticky in the "SX Microcontrollers, SX/B Compiler and SX-Key Tool" forum with the SX/B 1.51 update...

    Mystery solved... wink.gif
