Hi all I could use some sage advice on a battery powered PICAXE device. It is a nightlight that turns on sets of LED’s when it is dark and motion is detected. 2 sets of LEDs will fade on and off until motion is no longer detected, then turn off. At most it will power 24 LEDs at 20mA. There will...

Hi all, I am using an 08M to asynchronously fade on and off 2 sets of 9 LED's based on the state of some input sensors. With 2 sets to fade I want to use the PWM command, not the PWMOUT command. It isn't working well - LEDs blink or flash or come on almost instantly. So, couple questions: Does...

Having problems downloading. I get the error "Error - Memory Verification Failed (Byte XX)" where XX changes each time. Most of the time I get this error but not always. Here's the interesting part. If I overclock the chips to 8MHz, the downloads always work. System: Experimenter's...

Hi all, I incorrectly installed the usb-serial cable drivers axe027. But I had bought a generic usb to serial cable from www.tech-supplies.co.uk that has different drivers. But now I cannot uninstall the axe027 drivers. Nothing in the program list and nothing in the device manager. I tried...

I created a speed test program that acts as a crude SW PWM running on the 18X. I had expected this to run so fast I couldn't see the LED blinking. However this program is running at about 10 cycles per second. I had played with the debugger earlier and thought perhaps it was still on, but I...

Hi all, I am new to PICs, just got the Experimenter's Board with the 18X and a USB adapter cable. I having download problems I'd say about 50% of the time. Sometime during the download I get this: Error - Memory Verification Failed (Byte XX) where XX changes each time. However the download...
