    Alternative software for the PCB Scope module

    Just out of curiosity will the RevEd PCB Scope module work with any other software? A Internet search shows that there are a number of programs that work with Oscilloscope modules. I have no idea if these modules all conform to set standards, or are they one off designs with no commonality. If...

    Problem with i2c 1602 display

    I have a project (a simple countdown timer) that ideally needs a display to show number of seconds being set then the seconds counting down. I have no problem with the program but including a 1602 display is causing problems. Details of the display = QAPASS 1602A fitted with a "Smart LCD...

    Problem with code from 2013 (UV exposure box for PCB's)

    Thank you both for a very quick reply. I will be putting the circuit on a breadboard tomorrow so I will be able to test it. I will be making some small changes to the given circuit by using a relay initially instead of a MOSFET as I do not have any of the specified type. Assuming that works O.K...

    Problem with code from 2013 (UV exposure box for PCB's)

    I have now reached a point where I would like to make my own PCB's and now want to make a UV exposure box. I found an excellent design that uses a 08m2 picaxe with an ic2 driven display that uses a rotary encoder. This design is by Jari Majaniemi which can be found at :-...

    How do you connect a GBX018 Motor/Gearbox to the outside world?

    I have a GBX018 Motor/Gearbox that I would like to drive a length of M6 threaded studding. However the output shaft from the gearbox is about 5mm across with two flats. I am having difficulty trying to find a means of coupling it to the studding. Has anybody found a reliable method of connecting...

    Cat Detector

    Hi There, Now I no longer have a dog to carry out the work I wish to make a picaxe controlled device to prevent the local cats from using my front and rear gardens as a loo. I am prohibited by my wife from using the more robust methods of prevention like a 12 bore, traps or even bricks dropped...

    SRF005 Ultrasonic Range Sensor

    The specification for the SRF005 states Max Range 3 metres. Also Sensiivity - Will detect a 3cm diameter broom handle at > 3 metres. Does anyboy with practical experience of this Sensor have any idea how far away the sensor would be capable of reliably detecting say a wall or door opening...

    Is there any speed advantage?

    I have just read the thread "Picaxe based Segway project". I noticed that a Picaxe chip may not be fast enough to operate this project. I am aware that the Programming Editor has the capability to compile code to assembler and that Tech Supplies list the BAS800 Pic Programmer. So it appears...

    Photosensitive Dry Film Negative Photoresist (a little OT)

    I have nearly completed making a UV LED lightbox to expose photosensitive PCBs. My intention is to produce PCBs from pre-sensitised PCB (for PICAXE projects of course). However whilst searching the Internet for possible suppliers of the PCBs I came across a number of sites on E*** that are...

    Simple Switch Box Trick

    This project is a very simple little trick box. It is designed really for children but it seems to work very well with adults as well. The trick is just a small box with one or more switches on it plus an LED. When you press one of the switches the LED lights, but when your subject (victim?)...
