Anyone have a link to any good (dumbed down) reference manuals for the Prop1? The PDF's got me started, but I was hoping to find a full listing of commands, tip/tricks, etc. Something that would be the "next step" beyond the very helpful from the programming pdf.


Thanks!

Have you downloaded the IDE from parallax yet? If you have, the help file is extremely helpful. Also, look around parallaxs' site, they have lots of good info.  ;D

Scaring someone with a prop you built -- priceless!

Shawn's correct -- the help file in the BASIC Stamp IDE lists all of the commands and has demos for the BASIC Stamp 1 (the Prop-1 core).  The help file command index clearly shows which command works with the BS1.  That said, do focus on learning the commands listed at the end of the Prop-1 Programming PDF as those are the commands most useful for prop programming.

I created that help file (when I worked for Parallax) so I know there's good stuff in it!
