Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

When using Tera Term, I try sending the clock program listed on Geoff's web site and various programs errors show up in the program listing. I assume it's a .bas Tiny Basic program? Where am I going wrong here? Thank you

If you're referring to the CLOCK.BAS programme inside the ZIP file Analog_Clock.ZIP, I'm the culprit who cobbled that together.
All .BAS files related to the Maximite, refer to MMBASIC files.
You didn't tell us what the errors were, nor when they were appearing.
One gotcha when sending files to the Maximite via TeraTerm, is that you need to set up TeraTerm with a line delay, so that the MMBASIC interpreter has time to process each line as it receives it.
To set up the delay, there's a pull-down Setup->Serial Port. Change the Transmit Delay->msec/line to some value other than 0 (try 10).
Hope that helps.

Thanks Bob. I set the delays to 10ms. Works! Line errors 2,8,216 unknown commands
