This section contains a number of exercises that demonstrate methods of communicating
over a Bluetooth wireless connection with the eb500. The scenarios described are not meant
to form an exhaustive list, but rather illustrate a number of more common and useful
configurations. All source code shown in these exercises is available in electronic form on the
accompanying CD, in the Samples folder, using the filename used in this manual.
Communicating between Two eb500 Modules
In this exercise we will step through the process of communicating wirelessly between two
eb500 modules, one inserted into a Boe-Bot robot and the other inserted into a SumoBot
robot. We will program the SumoBot to use its infrared sensors to follow an object and then
transmit its movements to the Boe-Bot. The Boe-Bot will use the received information to
mimic the movements of the SumoBot.
To perform this exercise, as documented, you will need a Boe-Bot, a SumoBot, and two
eb500 modules. If you are using any of the other supported Parallax robots, you may need to
make adjustments to this exercise.
Step 1:
1. Open the BASIC Stamp Editor.
2. Enter the following program code into the editor, replacing the Bluetooth device
In this step we will create a BASIC Stamp application that will use the infrared
sensors of the SumoBot to follow an object and transmit its movements to a remote
eb500.

application is available in electronic form on the accompanying CD, in the Samples
folder, in the file MonkeySee.bs2.
