Hello everyone.
Although due to the architecture of the BasicStamp I understand
why RS-232 was used on the PSIM initially, but it's not a huge
task to incorporate a USB port . I did a post search and noticed
that it's come up here. Has there been any further thoughts on
this? Did the idea go anywhere? I would think a USB to be
preferred , as it interfaces more readily with a larger number of
systems - i,e, Macintosh. I've tried using RS232 plotter on a PC
cad program while running Virtual PC on a Mac via a USB/232
adapter cable and the results were pretty dismal.
