    Remote switch plug

    Crossing posts again:) You've answered my question. Thanks. I attach the raw data in a text file just in case you are interested. I do not of course expect you to do anything with it. thanks for all the help.

    Remote switch plug

    I haven't looked into the raw data before. In the raw data is the first value the height of the pulse and the second value the duration of the pulse?

    Remote switch plug

    By "you" I mean me accepting my limitations. I'm sure you would have the expertise to solve this if you had the time.

    Remote switch plug

    Hi Alan. I didn't program the raw data into the Arduino, just the binary code. I think the binary code may then be manipulated in some way or converted into the raw code by the RCSwitch.h library. I've since looked in more detail at the github on this and I will ask a few questions on their...

    Remote switch plug

    Hi Alan. Thanks for your continued interest with my problem. I don’t have a logic analyser or ‘scope. I got the info about the rf signal from a receiver attached to an arduino. I was then able to use this info to transmit the signal with an rf transmitter attached to the arduino and it operates...

    Remote switch plug

    Hi Allen. I've tried a lot of different delays around 150 but it doesn't work unfortunately. It must be more complicated than just a simple delay between each 0 and 1.Thanks for your help anyway.

    Remote switch plug

    Thanks for that hippy. I've looked at your code but I'm afraid it's beyond me. I think I may just go for the less elegant option of wiring the buttons on the remote control to a small relay.

    Remote switch plug

    Hi Alan. Sorry I didn't see your last post when I posted my last comment. You are right, it should be about 150 not 125. thanks again. I'll let you know how I get on. Regards Dermot

    Remote switch plug

    Oops, I'm wrong there I think. I forgot to take account of the HIGH and LOW (400/8=50) and the PAUSEUS (600/8=75) so my PAUSEUS length should be about 125?

    Remote switch plug

    Thanks for that Alan. So I should try the PAUSEUS command at about 250 (314/1.25) and trial and error from then on. Regards Dermot

    Remote switch plug

    Hi, I want to send a 433MHz signal to turn on an RF socket from a 08M2 picaxe. I have already done this using an arduino UNO R3. I sniffed the signals coming from the remote control using the arduino and the screenshot is attached. From this you can see that the first button push (turning ON...

    PC to 18M2 serial communication

    Hi. I need some advice please on connecting an 18M2 to my PC so that I can send serial commands to it to set certain output pins high or low. I don’t need the 18M2 to reply to the PC. I do not need to be able to program the 18M2. I do that off board. I have actually done this type of thing...

    Exiting a Pause?

    Hi. I would appreciate a little help with some code please. I am using an 08M2 to control a water heater. I turn on the water heater by making pinC.4 high by simply momentarily pushing a push to make switch which is connected to 5V and pinC.4. This then makes pinC.0 go high which operates a...

    AXE027 cable and PICAXE-08 Proto Board

    Hi, I just want to flash an LED from the keyboard of a PC running Win7 64, an AXE027 cable and the PIC 08 proto board. I'm using the 08M2 chip. Here's the code I'm using: main: serin 3,N2400,b1 if b1=1 then high 4 endif pause 1000 low 4 goto main It works fine in the simulator so I'm...

    Transmitting text strings and ASCII

    Perhaps someone could clear up a slight problem I am having with Program Editor (ver 5.5.1). I am using an 18M2 with an NKM coder/decoder to send text strings to 6 different 08M2s (with NKM decoder also). I am using the serout and serin command to do this. My problem is concerned with the...

    Viewing bit state in the simulator

    Hi, Is it possible when using the simulator to view the state of a bit variable? I can view the byte and word variable no problem but can't find the present value or state of a bit. Also,I have the latest version of the Program Editor, 5.2.11 and it is really superb but it doesn't seem to...

    Range of Pulsout command

    Hi, I will be using a PICAXE-14M2 at 4Mz to pulse out 16 different pulses to to eight PIC-08 chips. Each PIC-08 will receive two of these pulses turning a latching solenoid ON and OFF. So when the 14-M2 pulses out for say 80ms the first of the PIC-08s will turn ON solenoid no.1 and when the...

    Problem Programming PIC 08

    Hi, I know this is a common problem which has been dealt with on the forum before many times but I’d really appreciate any help you could give me with programming a PIC 08 chip. I've read as much as I've been able to find on the forum about this problem and I hope I haven't missed something...

    Relay Flyback diode placement

    I am driving a 500 ohm relay directly from leg 5 of a PIC 08. I am a little puzzled by the placement of the flyback diode for the relay. Is it in the correct position as shown in the attached pdf file? Thanks in advance if you can help. Regards Dermot

    L293D driver

    I'm using an L293D chip to power a solenoid valve. It receives its signal from an 08 chip. I'm using leg 3 and leg 7 of the o8 chip to power leg 2 and leg 7 of the L293D. Do I need to have a resistor between leg 3 0f the 08 chip and leg 2 of the L293D and between leg 7 of the 08 chip and leg 7...
