down they will automatically start up. The BASIC Stamp does not know if this happens, so again, devote
a significant amount of time to think about how to make your program and how the Stamp PLC is
connected absolutely fail-safe. The diagram to the right depicts how to connect an output device, and
the output power supply, to the Stamp PLC.
Reading Digital Inputs
Digital inputs 1-8 are multiplexed (or grouped) into three I/O lines courtesy of a 74HC165 parallel in -
serial out shift register. All Stamps have a built-in command (SHIFTIN) to assist in reading this type of
device. When the 74HC165 is read, the status of the inputs will be loaded into the corresponding bits of
the variable InBits. The following program will retrieve and display digital inputs 1-8.

Main:
Inputs 9-10 are accessed directly. They are not part of the shift register, and as a result, have their own
addresses. Input 9's I/O address is 6, and input 10's I/O address is 7. The following program listing
shows how to access Inputs 9 and 10, and does so using conditional branching statements.
