Afternoon all, I have been given some HC-SR04 to use on a robotics project. The robot is being designed for primary students so I will be using the flowchart software and not basic. Is it possible to use the SR04 with PE Flowchart software or not? Is the ultra command transferable or would I...

Good evening all, Firstly I would like to say thank you all for your help over the last few projects. I have made prototypes of both the RGB Night Light and Vibrobug. However with moving school at the end of the academic year, the school have decided to ditch the projects. This is part of the...

Evening All, Thank you very much for all your help with the last project. I have made a few versions to the board and will get photos once the toy/kit is complete. So now it is time for the next project. Very simplistic and I expect a large majority of you are fed up of answers questions on...

Ok, Changes made. No doubt there are mistakes!! I am questioning everything I do now as I feel I am back in the students shoes not knowing anything. Question: Do I need a switch on the MOTOR power supply, if so can I use the one I have and double it up? Please excuse the poor circuit...

I am so glad I have till September to learn about PICAXE properly. The conversion from GENIE was not as simple as I expected. Noticed the mistake with the Download socked after I posted the thread, I have been teaching so was not able to change it. grim_reaper: the new national curriculum...

I have dropped the piezo from the project. It was just an extra element for students to have when programming. Don't worry I will breadboard the project before making the PCB. I am writing a blog of how I have made the project for my students to use when attempting their GCSE portfolio so I...

Thank you for your quick response. I have asked the mod/admin to move the thread. (Sorry about that) Changed LDR to pin 1 so it now has ADC. Moved the download socket connections. I was going to route it myself, I have seen what I did now, just copied 123 off the manual and not check what...

Merry Christmas Ladies and Gents, I have been looking around the forum and have finally got around to posting on here. I hope I have posted this in the right place (if not admin please can you move it). I have used design circuits and boards around Genie chips but would like to upgrade to...
