Now, as I said before, I am not a programmer, and just getting into electronics, so please have patience with me. I need this for my current project. and because I been using BS2 and need more I/O was suggested to add the SX to my design, I think it's a great idea; but i don't have any of the SX products YET. and would like to see if this is possible. I need a simple program. (4) pins (1) one to control the forward movement of a gear thru a solenoid. (2) the second to control the reverse motion of the gear thru another solenoid. the (3) third to receive a serial data output from a digital caliper. and the (4) fourth to receive a serial data input from the Basic Stamp 2. the program needs to do the following; (1) receive a data value from a Basic Stamp 2, telling the SX where to go. (2) move either forward or reverse to achieve the received value data from the BS2. (3) check the caliper data to see if the Basic Stamp value was achieved. again, I am not a programmer. I was just suggested to use the SX and don't have a clue where to start. any help is greatly appreciated. This project will go into my current project, so the more help I get, the faster I can complete it, and post it in the completed projects for future use by all of you guys.
