Is there software out there that makes programming a BASIC stamp easier? 

by Guest Geek on September 26, 2009

Q: I have a Halloween project and I have built a I/O controller with solid state relay’s to trigger different effects. I know nothing about writing code or BASIC stamps. Is there any software out there to make it easy to assign things to turn on, off, and how much time to do so?

 
 

Is there a device I can program where it will click certain spots on the screen when pressed? 

by Guest Geek on July 20, 2009

Q: Where can I find a very simple freeware program where I can control mouse clicks assigned to different points on my screen with my keyboard. I would also like to know if there is a way I could buy some sort of USB device like a keypad that I could customize and use to do these mouse clicks/macros. (ie I click a button on the device and it clicks a specific point on the screen and I press another button and it clicks another assigned position on the screen.)

by Guest Geek on April 7, 2009

Q: I have OPNET 14 and L’m trying to figure out how to get Microsoft Visual Studio 2008’s compiler to work with it. I keep reading “there are some environmental details needed to be configured” but I don’t know anything about C++. I’m at networking student trying to run simulations using OPNET.

I’ve been searching this topic for the last couple of days, any help would be great.

 
 

Can I test a serial port application without actually having the hardware? 

by Guest Geek on March 13, 2009

Q: I wrote an application using VB6 to be able to receive data from a serial port and write that data to a text file until I either tell it to stop or the connection is gone.

My question is, I have no hardware to test my application, I have VB6 installed on my laptop. Is there a way to test it without hardware. The hardware is in another building 20 min driving from my place and it cost $22,000 so I cannot get it to my office and I don’t want to go there each time to test it. I saw some ads talking about null modem but i did not get it.
