Need code for DS1302 & BS2 Stamp

Scenario:

Chip -- DS1302 RTC; Microcontroller -- Stamp, BS2; Display -- LK204-25

I am using a modified version of the Bit Bash technique that was written by Ben Lennard (Thank you, Ben). What I have so far is a display that (in the end) will display the time, date, outside temperature, wind speed ...

Since you know what I am trying to achieve, are there any other displays that you would suggest?

Just recapping, I want to be able to use a display to add for an activity to do with stamps (microcontrollers) for my grade 9 area. I have them flashing on and off leds, making up simple tunes ...

I finally get it. I don't quite know what I was thinking. I2C communications is strictly TTL. RS232 is anywhere from +/- 3 volts to +/- 15 volts if not higher, which is obviously not TTL.

The BS2p has native I2C communications whereas the BS2 does not. The "Bit Bash" program that I ...

My last message got lost (I think).

What I know so far & please DO correct me if I'm wrong:

The LK204-25 is set up to do I2C and RS232 communications. I2C communications is supported only through the four pin connector on the back of the display (looks like a four pin power connector to what we ...

Stamps and Matrix Orbital LK Series

Henry

I was using the I2C protocol with an LK series LCD display that I have with much success. Now, I am tring to use SEROUT to the display so that I can use the display on a stamp stack which is basically a bs2. I am trying to do 2 things:

1. I teach electronics at a technical vocational school ...

VK(LK)204-25 Display Module

I am trying to get data to appear on the module that I have using I2C communications. I am using a BS2p24 stamp.

The code that I have been trying using a Basic Stamp editor 2.5 (Parallax) with a BS2p24 is I2COUT 0, $5C, $2, [$08, "Hello World"] with no luck. I know the module is at least powering ...
