    How to return the Editor to default settings?

    'Default' Panels button (the first button on the Simulate menu ribbon) will also do the same.

    Microbot Tyres (solved)

    Yes they are tight and much easier to fit if warm, leave them on radiator for a bit or place in some warm (not boiling) water.

    40X1 dirsb syntax

    Please see part 1 of the manual for the 40X1 pinout diagram. You will see portB are outputs only on this older part. Hence no dirsB command is required or supported.

    AXE033 OLED Module problem

    You could buy the pcb (on sale) and just swap the chip over: https://picaxestore.com/products/serial-lcd-module?variant=47627260330326

    ADC Channel Numbers

    Pin scanning one by one is much simpler like this: main: if pinC.0 = 1 then process0 if pinC.1 = 1 then process1 ;if pinC.2 = 1 then process2 ;if pinC.3 = 1 then process3 ;if pinC.4 = 1 then process4 ;if pinC.5 = 1 then process5 ;if pinC.6 = 1 then...

    ADC Channel Numbers

    You need to understand the difference here between commands and variables. readadc is a command, you pass to it a value that tells it which ADC channel to read. After the adc is read you then have the result, in a variable, to use in your 'do something' loop pinsC (or pinC.0 etc) are variables...

    ADC Channel Numbers

    >> lookup b10,(c.0, c.1... Reading ADC - this works for ADC only because the ADC channel number constant is the same as the pin name constant on the M2 parts. But that doesn't make it right - you really should be using the ADC channel number in the lookup (lookup b10,(8, 9... ). The ADC...

    PE6.2.0.0 hanging up

    Change log between versions are given here: http://www.picaxe.com/Software/PICAXE/PICAXE-Editor-6/ Nothing in simulation has changed between 6.1 and 6.2

    ADC Channel Numbers

    For the 18m2 channel number matches the pin value. On other parts it may not. https://picaxe.com/basic-commands/advanced-picaxe-configuration/adcsetup/ Use b0 = pinsB type of command to read inputs. Bit0 to bit7 variables then correspond to the 8 inputs.

    Parallel Tasks

    In the first example alarm is part of slot 1 only. In your example you have made alarm part of slot 2, but actually jump to it from slot1. Will be clearer to keep each slot's code separate. Once in alarm slot 1 is stuck in alarm forever, so will always be processing high c.7 So use slot 0 for...

    Can't get GLCD to work!

    If not seeing anything at all make sure you have the negative inverter correctly configured (i.e. jumper is on GLCD side) and have adjusted the blue contrast pot as required. You also need a delay as very first line in your code (see datasheet) 2. To make sure GLIC / GLCD initialises...

    Fichiers de simulation avec Diagram Builder

    Use this folder, make sure the new file has a different filename e.g. AXE107_RudolphCopy.edd Once you have added the new simulation file, select a different chip size in settings (e.g. 08M2, then 28X2, then 08M2 again) to force a refresh of the 8 pin simulation list.

    We Need a ChromeOS Picaxe Editor

    The old Chrome PICAXE programmer app has been available for many years here, and can also download an .axe file exported from PE6. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/picaxe-programmer/mcakegabnfookegpcpdmhgpdajgkjncp?pli=1 However it is not required any more, as it is simpler to download...

    Picaxe editor for iPad?

    You can use the cloud programming link (top of this page) software. However there is no ipad adapter for the AXE027 cable.
