your COM ports found by the software.
√ If you know the number of the COM port your BASIC Stamp is connected to,
check to make sure it is included in the list.
√ If it is not included in the list, follow the BASIC Stamp Editor's instructions for
adding a COM port.
√ If you're not sure about your COM port, click OK for now.
