Hello, I am looking at being able to write a program which can turn on and off an output from one switch, the switch has to be push button only, not latching. So press 1 = ON and press 2 = OFF then press 3 = ON etc... The program i want to use is: b1 = 0 checkforsignal: if pin1 = 1 then...

Hi, i know if i click the refrsh button in the terminal screen it refreshs it, how do i make the 08M refresh the screen itself, instead of having to click it, i remmeber from dos, i used to type CLS, this does not work on the picaxe system, is there a guide somewhere what LF, CR etc... means...

Hello, i know this is a probabily a silly question but... should i use a picaxe rather than a seven segment driver such as 7447? im only thinking of saving space, i think it might be a little complicated to program the chip though.... but does allow me to have more versibility. thanks

Hello, im interested to know the longest time delay possible to make without use of an external chip! obivously id be using all the word values joined together to make Long Words (LW), as for processor not entirely sure at the moment, i do like the 08M though, although will probabily have to...

Quick question, im interested in using wallwart power supplies, preferbabily SMPS (switch mode power supplies) like phone chargers which can very from 70volts to like 277 volts on there input and always give out, preferb 12 volts or 5. any ideas, cheaper the better... kind regards

Hello, Can someone please advise PROBLEM: I need to make up to 14 devices work synchronusly together, the system will be driven by two push buttons. I have in the past linked all devices to a single push button BUT found they do not all respond at the same time! IT MUST WORK ON A STAR NETWORK...

Hi all, I do NOT intend to tread through all detailed answers from previous simular threads its a simple question, he says.... basically the new crocodile technogoly allows you to program a picaxe direct from crocodile technogoly program via the serial port etc... do they have access to the...

Solved it now, Thanks anyway, Panic Over :) Edited by - MiB1986 on 27/06/2007 10:31:57

Ideas please... i was wondering you see these dimming switches by touch, ie touch once turns on, turns off, keep touching will dimm up and down, obviously there is two ways, resistance and capacitance has anyone done these? if so please explain how Kind Regards

Hello, I know PWM out is a way of communicating using a picaxe to a servo etc.., although is it possible to use a PWM "in" signal to communicate with another processor, the information only needs to be 1 way! which is from a native pic to the picaxe. If i can get the picaxe to read...

Hello, Dont know if this will be pulled but... i have been asked if i can help a friend of mines child to make a robot to follow lines, i can do it the simple way, hence but the line follower module and the microbot starter kit, but surely... The line follower module is simply a dedicated...

Hello, I’ve spend the last few hours studying the forum archives in the hope to dig some stuff up some information on this, and i have, i went to the DMX Standard information page, someone recommened, at http://www.theater-technisch-lab.nl/dmxen.htm. I read into the baud rate and...

Hello, i remember reading ages ago, that you could make a picaxe 08m so that you can push a command button and then it will say turn on output 1, push another to turn on output 2 in realtime! Ive been searching around etc... and cant find a fully loaded example, Ive never used serial...

Hello, Been a while since i posted on here but... I am trying to make a stepper motor rotate to a certain point from a certain voltage, i do have a calibration switch which when power is first applied to the processor it will make the motor in effect home to the switch, this is no problem...

Hello, new to this board and have been using pic axe system for about a year now and have found it wonderful but i am having problems on this occasion. I am trying to read a voltage range of 0 to 10 volts on a picaxe08M, i know the processor can only read upto 5 volts so have used two 10k...
