Hi there, for applications like this I prefer the COUNT command. If you dont't have to measure in very small intervals, which I guess is not so when you are ...
Hi there, let me throw myself in for qprox here. After hesitating for some weeks I finally followed the groups advice and got me one. They are simply ...
Hi John, what about a reed-switch close to the shaft and a little magnet on the shaft? Or a LED LDR-thing counting slots? Just two ways, maybe there are more...
Thanks about that I will try that too. will that work on the basicstamp 2? ... From: ulibasic <ulibasic@...> To:...

Hi Kevin: Typically there are two ways to do regenerative braking in industrial systems for both AC and DC motors run off adjustable speed drive technology. ...
... The easiest implementation would be to put a bridge rectifier across each electric motor, with the AC terminals connected to the motor terminals. The +...

I'm trying to drive SSRs with my Stamp2. When I drive the 4th one (at the same time), the stamp goes to reset. Is there a way around this like buffering. Can...
Yea, we can't use the chips because we would be over budget with our design project. We are trying to find a way to code it. Anyone have any other ideas? ...
Try with the freqout command, Works well I used it to do distance measurement. :D ... De: Astro Fizzix [mailto:astro_fizzix@...] Enviado el: Miércoles,...

Rick, Your reset problem may be caused by excessive currents on the Stamp's outputs used to drive the SSRs, or the Stamp's power supply voltage is dropping to...
Offload the task to a 555 running at 40KHz, the 555 will easily drive the LED, can be easily controlled by the stamp. Frees up the stamp to do other things. ...
I read somewhere how you could stop the repeated cycling of a pin, which when held in a HIGH state is set to LOW for a very short duration, as the BS2 does its...
If what you're experiencing is the Stamp Watchdog Timer (used during certain low-power modes), a possible solution would be to pull the pin high through a...
... Hi Jim, Exactly. However, the pins do not go LOW. They become inputs. That is an important distinction. The usual solution is one of the following: 1)...
Hi, Take a look at the following link http://www.mycal.net/projects/digital/encode.html It provides program samples in C and a simple cheap circuit to filter...
Hi, I would like to use Pulsin and Pulsout with an 8 x 8 switch matrix. If I generate 8 different pulse widths on the 8 columns, is it possible to use Pulsin...
You cant do two things at once on the stamp. it can do only one thing at one time. when the pulseout gets done then it does the next thing on the list. ... ...

you could use a gosub routine on a state change, see if the pin has changed back, if not return. On Wed, 31 Oct 2001 20:16:36 -0500 "Ray Gonzalez"...
Hi all, I am trying to set up some serial communication between a BSII and an PIC16F84 for my current project. I have found some code to do serial coms in...
You shouldnt have to convert to ascii try using the dec2 modifier in front of your variable ie(serout pin,baud,[254,120,dec2 variable] If your using an lcd...
it looks like your using a bs1, have you tried to incorporate the button routine in your program it will do what you want if your program isnt to big On Thu, 1...
the start bit is not actually a bit it is the first transition from high to low and is called a mark. I had a project that used the exact same chip. I have...
Hi there, I need to measure the resistance of 64 LDR close to simultaneously with my BSII. Does anybody know how I can do this kind of thing? Thanks, Daniel W...
Hi, Please specify a bit more on the following: - your ultimate goal, i.e do you want the light vs. resistance curve, or just find matched pairs, or what? -...
John, If you want something crude and dirty, you may try painting the shaft a flat black with several equally spaced glossy white lines. You then may be able...
That's a tall order. The Stamp really likes to do one thing at a time. Even with a PAK-III or IV (which has RCTime commands) they will only do 1 at a time too....
