dirsB and let pinsB not implemented in S2P?

[stevesmythe]

The blocks below work in "remote run" mode but not in connected mode. Is this a bug, or are these BASIC commands just not implemented?

I'm trying to drive a stepper motor in S2P and using dirsB/pinsB will be quicker than other methods of generating sequences

BASIC blocks are not supported in Connected Mode.

Thanks for the reply Hippy.

Note to RevEd.
Updated documentation for S2P would be REALLY helpful. The BASIC block is not even mentioned in the Getting Started Guide. There is a section in the Guide that refers to limitations - would have saved me a lot of time to know that BASIC blocks are not supported in Connected Mode.

Runs like treacle

Well I tried to run a stepper in S2P using this approach:



Removing the "wait" blocks causes everything to hangup. Leaving them in, the best I can do is move the stepper like treacle. I don't know if using "pinsB =" would have run any quicker (if it had been implemented in S2P) but I'll have to give up on running a stepper from S2P for now.
