    Most all are very well documented. If that dose not help this forum will.
    And alot of Parallax products are used in other electronics forums (robotics avr and sensor forums)

    www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=27977

    This is a three pin very good start +5volts Vdd, Vss, and Tx. I like it!

    It says "this circuit is not supported by parallax".............. what does this mean? What do I have to get to make it work with a BS2?

    This device can be connected to a PC serial port using a MAX232 line driver.
    The circuit isn't supported by Parallax, but it's possible to make this connection with a few dollars of parts.

    This circuit ' a MAX232 line driver' is not supported by (check with Parallax I don't want to mislead you about their products.
    but you can search about a MAX232 line driver

    The LCD module is not connected directly to the serial port of the computer, The BS2 is connected on your Board Of Education BOE then this is to your BS2 Stamp and then Pin 0-15 is connected to the LCD module
    So on the code SEROUT 0, 84 [noparse][[/noparse]"Hello Jessicat"] The LCD modules Tx pin is connected to your BOE pin 0 (zero)
    And +5 is @ Vdd and GND is @ Vss Tx is @ P0
