As the name suggests, this
Application Module is an expansion serial port for Parallax's BASIC
Stamps and Javelin Stamps.
The RS-232 DCE Add-on allows you to add an additional, full-featured DCE
serial port to BASIC Stamp and Javelin Stamp applications. The RS-232
Add-on is compatible with
Onboard sockets allow the selection of any available Stamp I/O pins
for the serial connections. Unlike the BASIC Stamp's programming port,
all signals are completely separate (no hardware echo of received data)
and the RS-232 DCE AppMod provides enough connections for implementing
full hardware flow-control.
Technical Features:
- Connections for TX, RX, RTS, and CTS signals
- Full TTL-to-RS-232 level shifting
- May be stacked for additional ports
The RS-232 DCE AppMod kit includes the following:
- RS-232 DCE AppMod
- 20-pin AppMod extender
- M-F stand-off
- 4-40 screw
- 4-40 nut
- Printed Documentation
The demonstration application shows how to use the RS-232 DCE AppMod to
communicate with a PC application developed using Microsoft Visual BASIC
6.0. The purpose of this program is to provide template techniques for
use in your own applications. Demonstrated are methods of sending a
single byte, a two-byte word, and a multi-byte string. Click on the
