    LCD identification

    Got hold of a load these LCD modules, but unable to find a data sheet from the markings on the back. It has a fine ribbon film with 27 wires and also 2 of the 4 poles have + and - marking for the back light : Google finds some references from the vluk2142 marking but it's mainly Chinese or...

    converting c program to picaxe basic - i2c functions

    Hi, can someone cast an eye over my picaxe conversion code and see if I,m getting this right? It will be for a BMP085 I2C pressure sensor I have on order. long bmp085ReadTemp(void) { i2cSendStart(); i2cWaitForComplete(); i2cSendByte(BMP085_W); // write 0xEE i2cWaitForComplete()...

    18m2 and setfreq command

    Hi, just received my latest order from Rev-Ed - only took a day from ordering on-line to my door:) Included with the order was the complete range of the new M2 chips to play with. I,ve got a problem with the 18M2 chip - it doesn't seem to like the setfreq command. PE goes through the prgramming...

    lookup function

    Manual 2 states " Each lookup is limited to 256 entries, but each entry may be a bit byte of wordconstant or variable." That isn't very clear, or is it a typo. Should it say "may be a bit, byte or word constant or variable". I,m at work at the moment, so can't try it in PE, so what I,m asking...

    AXE027 as a SPI programmer

    I have need of a SPI programmer for a target chip running 3.3volts (not a picaxe chip), but this Jennic 2.4ghz module : http://uk.farnell.com/jennic/jn5148-001-m00/module-zigbee-pro-w-integrated/dp/1739336 Would the AXE027 be suitable for this, do you think? Jennic supply the programming...

    PCB for 20X2 chip

    I see the AXE118 kit is 20X2 compatable ;) But is the PCB available on its own? I really don't need the rest of the bits as I already have plenty of those, and don't need the darlington driver. Incidently the picture used on the rev-ed site for the AXE118 is that of the 14M board, AXE117, and...

    OT : Micro Men - BBC4 thursday 9PM

    http://www.radiotimes.com/ListingsServlet?event=10&channelId=47&programmeId=104140962&jspLocation=/jsp/prog_details_fullpage.jsp This looks interesting, although a drama, rather than a documentary, to anyone who had an Acorn Electron/BBC Micro/ Sinclair ZX80/81/Spectrum. (UK TV only, I...

    Programming eeprom with data

    Hi folks, now that the X2 range is about to hit us, I,m back onto my project;) This is slightly off topic..... I need to load a lookup table into an eeprom - 1024 words long. Before I used an 'axe to load 256 words(or bytes, can't remember) at a time, modified the program for the next batch...

    28X1 questions

    Converting 18X inputs to outputs

    I see there is a great thread in Code Snippets to convert Output Pins to Inputs. Is there a way to convert Inputs to Outputs also? Cheers, Texy

    Using QBasic to serial send to Picaxe

    I,ve decided to ditch using op-amps to condition the signal for my altimeter and just use a max187 12-bit adc to supply the voltage to the 18x picaxe. Before, when using the internal 10-bit ADC, I was able to 'manually' program the lookup table of a 24lc256 eeprom by sending 256 bytes from...

    axe-119 ipod kit

    If you take a look at this Rev-Ed catalogue, you'll find axe-119 ipod kit. However, if you do a search on the shop, it doesn't come up. Did this kit ever exist? I,d be interested in looking at circuits, and code for controlling ipod devices. Texy

    Manual errors

    Hi from new member, and a few Q's

    Hi folks, first post here ! I,ve been working on my own design of an altimeter using the popular MPX4115 pressure sensor and a 16F88 and LCD display. I 'cheated' with the maths by using a lookup table within the programming memory of the 16F88. Anyway I got it basically working, but wanted to...
