short rubber antenna) is connected to the BASIC Stamp board, and the Base STAMPER (long
chrome antenna) is connected to the PC, but in fact the Mobile and Base units are interchangeable.
4. For best performance, position the STAMPERs such that their antennae are parallel to each
other and perpendicular to the Earth.
• While the range of the STAMPERs is 100 to 300 feet, initially it is recommended that you place
the STAMPERs a foot or so apart so that you may easily observe the LEDs of both STAMPER
modems simultaneously.
5. Apply power to the STAMPERs and the BASIC Stamp circuit board using the included AC wall
adapters. The Transmit LED should be on.
6. On your PC, test your system by invoking the BASIC Stamp Editor’s Identify command from the
Run menu.
• You should see the STAMPER’s Transmit and Receive LEDs flash as data is transferred over the
wireless link and you should see the correct Identification returned from your BASIC Stamp
module. If this does not work the first time, repeat the Identify command:Whenfirstpowered
up the STAMPER Modems need to synchronize. Because of this you may need to repeat the
Identify command several times when first powering up.
That’s it! You should now be able to download BASIC Stamp code and perform all normal debugging
operations with the STAMPER wireless link.
