A Download Progress window will appear briefly as the program is transmitted from the
PC or laptop to your BASIC Stamp. Figure 1-41 shows the Debug Terminal that should
appear when the download is complete. You can prove to yourself that this is a message
from the BASIC Stamp by pressing and releasing the
Reset button on your Board of
Education or HomeWork Board. Every time you press and release it, the program will
re-run, and you will see another copy of the message displayed in the Debug Terminal.
