    AXE033 I2C Controller/Clock Board Circuit Diagram

    I have a project (DS1307 Clock/Temp Sensor/Humidity Sensor which requires a 4 line LCD and I wish to use I2C comms so means using an AXE033 . I am unable to buy either the clock/controller Board by itself (to use with my own LCDs) or with a 4 line display from the Picaxe shop. When I...

    Funduino I2C LCD Display

    I have bought a Funduino 16x2 I2C LCD display thinking it would work with a PicAxe 20X2. The limited info that comes with it suggests that the I2C address is 0x27. In trying a simple "Hello World" program using the address 0x27 I do not get anything on the LCD. The LCD is powered and I have...

    Can you run parallel task on 20X2 Chip or is it inly available on 'M2' versions

    I am doing a project to rotate my HF antenna using a picaxe, 4 x 3 key pad and a LCD display. To do this effectively I need to run two tasks, one for the display bargraph and bearing readout and the other to monitor the keypad and service an interupt from my 8574 chip. This all works using a...

    Problem with Nick12AB serial Bargraph in 10 bit ADC mode

    I am working on a project to control my HF Beam antenna with a 14M2. I am trying to display a bar graph of the bearing as well as the bearing itself. I am using Nick12AB's very good serial bar graph routine and it all works fine when I use the ADC in 8 bit mode, i.e. the output is 0-255 ...

    Lcd rtty tuning aid

    I have been trying to create a RTTY tuning aid similar in function to the Toni Tuna I built years ago. I have been trying to modify Nick12AB's improved bargraph code so that instead of getting a bar graph I get a moving indicator as I sweep the voltage up and down on one of the ADC inputs on...

    Dital Audio selection by Picaxe

    Digital Audio selection by Picaxe Digital Voter: The purpose of this project is use a 28X2 picaxe to choose the strongest audio from three NOAA weather satelite receivers. It works on the basis that the level of audio rises from a low point to a higher point as the satellite receiver rises...

    GPS Based Regional TimeZone clock

    GPS Based Time Zone Clock I have described a MSF based TimeZone clock and posted it in the finished projects section. The only bugbear with the project was that on occasion MSF tranmitters are maintained and the signal is lost. I did note spurious info fed to the clock chip. Once the...

    MSF based World Time Zone Clock

    MSF Based Time Zone Clock I am a radio amateur and it is very useful to have a clock display showing the times in other parts of the world so I set about building one using a DS1307 and a Picaxe chip.. I then thought to link the DS1307 to a accurate time source and decided to use MSF on...

    Sending NMEA commands to EM-406a GPS Module

    Hi, I have built a GPS based regional time clock which doubles as a UTC clock. At present I am receiving all the messages but I only want the NMEA messages "GGA" and "RMC" all others being off. I have tried every thing I can to get them to turn off. See attached test code, which displays UTC...

    Understanding PWM Better -help needed

    In another thread i am trying to light leds in accordance with the output from a MSGEQ7 audio chip. while I await the arrival of these chips I have been experimenting with pwmout to drive an led. Using a pot on adc channel three to provide a variable input level i am using the readadc output...

    LED Colour Organ using 20X2 and MSGEQ7 Freq Analyser chip

    I have in mind using a Picaxe 20X2 and the new Graphic analyser chip MSGEQ7 to make a colour organ . My problem is with using PWM. I know what it is, but don't understand the difference of implementation on a PICAXE chip. Those I have looked at have both HPWM and a PWM output. The MSGEQ7...

    Multiple I2C masters on Bus

    I have two separate 20X2 boards. One receives MSF and displays it on a LCD display in a serial mode only. I have a second 20X2 board built before, that displays different time zones, reading the current time from a DS1307 chip and adding the time difference to the region it is currently...

    AXE027 programming problems

    Hi all hope someone can help. When I started using PICAXE chips some months ago I bought an AXE027 lead and used it successfully for some time. Quite recently it has resolutely refused to program any of my project boards which include 8M2, 18M2 and a 20X2 homebrew board. In every case it...

    I2C problems using an 18M2 chip

    I believe the 18m2 chip will work with an IC2 bus. Is there any setting up to do? my 18m2 doesn.t seem to talk to my OLED or real time clock. the clock and Display functions fine in serial mode. i have a link on my project board for the I2C mode. Help pretty please, what am I missing?

    problem reading back rtc time on New axe033y OLED board

    Have just built my new axe033y OLED board. I am able to display text on the display on both lines by serout command. I have the ds1307 clock on board too. when i send the time to the RTC it says Data Set on the display. i cannot, however, read the time back. All i get is a row of 00000 . it...

    Single step in button for the Simulator

    i have been using the simulator quite a lot recently and have thought that we could use a single step key rather than have to open the menu and select with the mouse. It would be much better to hit an F key to do next step function. is there any chance please.....
