Hi
I tried programming Basic Stamps·via Toothpick SE·wirelessly but had same error for different models of Basic stamp i.e. BS2sx / BS2p··
·
Bluetooth enabled Toshiba qosmio a-15 laptop being used,
I triple checked connections as stated in the PDF manual for the toothpick for connecting to Basic stamp they are CORRECT.
I can connect to toothpic via·computer·bluetooth manager and set it as COM port 1
next (while connected) I Run StampWFP.exe
where i choose wirelessprog.bsp for source file, programming status - Toothpic stamp edition pins CCP2-4 after programming eneter debug.
correct com port set under settings and each time when i run Program now it does Presence·detection, detects Toothpic and·then i get white status bar and it sort of freezes with·BUSY·mouse icon. then·first i see·connection in computer bluetooth manager is lost and after·I get same error every time·-
"Error: BS2p not found, Attach bs2p and restart Toothpic"······ ·
·
Same message goes for BS2sx,
I've searched on support forums for the issue but couldn't find the solution.
Would appreciate any·help.
Thanks
Daniel

Just out of curiosity, what happens if you try to program a BASIC Stamp 2?

it doesn't seem to see stamp at all... as i've mentioned i did double check all the connections...
As well there is 4.9volts on both stamp and toothpick VDD/VSS...
is there anything else i need to check?!
What I was asking was if you had a stock BS2 (not BS2sx or BS2p) that you could try on the Toothpick. I am trying to determine if there is some particular issue. Take care.

Isn't any stamp can be used? in particular there is BS2p proto board used in toothpick MANUAL.
when i get error for toothpick programming, toothpick has red led blinking 5 times in a loop...
Yes you should be able to program any BASIC Stamp Module, but it appears the software is using a customized front-end and I don’t know if it handles the latest version of the BS2sx and BS2p. I would recommend sending an e-mail to support over at FlexiPanel to see if they can confirm this. Take care.

what I've noticed though that when the status bar appears (after clicking 'program now') Bluetooth manager icon is changing to "transmit/receive" i guess and first the connection in the BT manager dissapears/disconnect for some reason and then·right after·I get that·error in Stamp Wireless Field Programmer... Error Stamp not found, Attach it and Restart Toothpick...
Were there any problems reported before with bluetooth radios on computers?
is there Specific brand of Bluetooth Radio CONFIRMED AND TESTED that works with Toothpick?
Although i'm not sure it's the radio in computer that's at fault...·
