Guys, I dont need to decode a pulse stream. And I don't need to receive it, I just need to send it. this is how PPM works: * - low separator pulse, always 0.5 ms 1..8 - high "RC PWM pulse" for channels 1..8 0.5 – 1.5 ms each number corresponds to a channel on the radio. And the...

Hi there. I've long been a fan of picaxe, and RC flying stuff. So what about combining them? I have a drone for aerial footage, a DJI Phantom 2 vision +. The transmitter is a basic RC quad transmitter with no way to do mixes on the channels. In one of the sticks of the remote, when I turn it...

Hi there! I've been trying some picaxe pics on controlling NOKIA 5110 LCDs that use the Philips PCD8544 LCD driver. I have some success with 18m2. I've tried some examples online like this one: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/c.lewis19/nokia.htm. Problem is the lack of libraries, and the limited...

Hi folks, My house alarm and many lights on my house work remotely on 433Mhz RF. What would be the best way to control them using picaxe? I would need a way to read each frequency on the remotes, all buttons on alarm and lights, and a way to reproduce them on will. If is this something that...

Hello picaxe people! I have a lot of projects done with the 08M2. simple stuff, some domotic gizmos, some simple robots and some dataloggers with sensors. My latest 08M2 project was a controller for some electric blinds outside the windows of my living room and bedroom (i have a link here...

Hi, I've searched the forum but couldn't find nothing about this. Can i program several chips at once? If i put 4 to 6 08M2 on a breadboard and parallel connect them to a download circuit, will it work? thank you

Hi there! I've purchased several of there relay modules to work with my picaxes: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Channel-Relay-Module-for-Arduino-PIC-ARM-DSP-AVR-Electronic-5V-/121058681881?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c2fa8e419 The idea is to control a conversion on my outside blinds, i have...

Hi there, I've done some basic picaxe circuits before and i just love these little chips. I normally use the 08m2 for it's size and low price, i've got a ton of these to play with :) I now need a simple circuit like a wired with 2 or 3 buttons. each button connected to an input on the 08M2. That...

Hi! I really love these little chips, and I've done lots of simple circuits with them like little simple robots, and circuits to control my automatic blinds, and other simple home automation stuff. But i really dont have a lot of electronics knowledge. I can hook up a chip to a base circuit, and...

Hi there. I'm trying to use a 08M2 to switch an infrared remote for my camera. I've done with success with thru previous version of 08m2, but now it just does not work. I'm doing it the simplest way i know: The signal that comes out from one channel, powers directly the small infrared remote...

Hi, I'm having a common problem (says google) with the picaxe usb cable to work with the axepad in a Mac. When I go to > Applications > System Preferences > Network, the cable is found... as a Modem! disconnected. The axePad can still find the board and downloads to it. but the circuit does...

Hi there. I've done some simple robots with PICAXE. I've got a eee PC that is bricked. needs a BIOS flash. I've read that some people can de-solder the BIOS chip and re-program it with SPI Flash. The BIOS chip is: part number is Winbond 25X40VSIG. Can I do it with my PICAXE setup? I've got a...
