unwanted resets

I have a bs2p and I'm runing a very simple program that controls·several 120v·motors. I am getting spuratic resets. Can anybody tell me why and what I can do to correct the problem?

Thanks in advance!

Jim

    Using too much current from the pins? check the current going through the BS2p with a meter or scope.

    It could also be kickback from the motors if not isolated with opto's.

    Think Inside the box first and if that doesn't work..
    Re-arrange what's inside the box then...
    Think outside the BOX!
