Hi, I want to build a picaxe project that'd decode a button from a Hauppauge TV remote control which I believe uses the philips RC5 protocol. I've tried hooking up an IR receiver to pin3 of an 08M and getting it to do infrain2 and then send it to the computer but it never seems to decode...

Hi, Thought this'd be simple but I just can't work out how to get it to work. Basic idea is to listen for a start command via serial in, that works fine, then wait for a number between 0 to 255 which then will cause a loop to go for that amount. However it's converting my '0' to 48 and...

Hi, How would I go about making a 08M log keys from a PS/2 keyboard and storing them for later data retrival? Is there any suitable easy-to-use extended memory for the PICAXE too? So I can store a lot of key presses? Thanks
