    AXE027 drivers install over network

    Hello, Is it possible to install the AXE027 drivers for the programming cable over a network without the cable being plugged into each individual computer? This is on a school network and the technicians want to be able to push it out from the server rather than pigging about. thanks Jon

    Picaxe 18 - 16f627

    Hello, I've just found about 30 picaxe in a cupboard - 18 pin 16F627. Are these usable with the current USB cables and porgramming editor, or are they too oldschool to be of any use? Thanks Jon Update: Also just found some 16F872 and a couple of 16F872 28 pin axes - same question as above!!

    Inverting Binary

    Hello, Is there an easy way to invert input binary within a program on a 20M2? eg, if I have inputs %01010101, is there a way to convert that to %10101010? - so 0 becomes 1, and 1 becomes 0? Thanks Jon

    Asking the impossible....

    Evening all, I suspect this is impossible, but I'm going to ask anyway on the offchance that God is real, fancies performing a miracle and reads the PICAXE forums... I have a program sat on a 20M2 which I foolishly forgot to save to my hard drive. Is there any way to upload the program from...

    Daily lights

    Hello, I'm hoping to use a 20m2 picaxe as a 'calendar' - by which I mean I will have half a dozen or so LEDs that I want to turn on on specific days of the week - to stay on all day. I feel like this should be easy and that I'm completely missing how to do it, so if anyone can point me in the...
