Clear the BS2 Program

Clear the BS2’s program

Let’s make sure to clear the program in the BASIC Stamp 2 before turning motor power on.  That way, some Boe-Bot program that used to be in there won’t send your Arlo into unexpected maneuvers.

• Make sure the Arlo’s Motors power is off.
• Connect your board’s programming cable to your computer.
• Turn on the Arlo’s Main power.
• Set the BOE’s power switch to 1.
• Open the No Surprise Maneuvers.bs2 program into your BASIC Stamp programming software.
• Run the program using your BASIC Stamp programming software’s Run button.

' Arlo - No Surprise Maneuvers.bs2
' Run this before ever turning on power to the Arlo's motors to prevent any
' unexpected motions.
