Hi all,

I really need help from somebody who have experience connecting BS2 with servo controller.
Please assist me on how to connect this servo controller to BS2 and some example code if possible.

I know this can be done.

Please Help.

    This servo controller seems to be similar to the Parallax Servo Controller. You can just connect the RX and TX leads (as shown in the User's Manual for the Cytron controller) to Stamp I/O pins. The SEROUT statement would be used to transmit to the RX pin of the controller and a SERIN statement would be used to receive information from the TX pin of the controller, all at 9600 Baud. I would recommend using a 220 Ohm resistor in series with each of the two Stamp I/O pins used. This is a safety precaution in case you make a mistake in wiring.

    Make sure to read the Cytron controller's User's Manual thoroughly and read the sections of the Basic Stamp Manual on the SERIN and SEROUT statements thoroughly. If you have specific questions as you go along, do ask, but we would probably not have sample code for this controller.
