Hey there guys, just a quick query.
I've got a 08M and an 18X PICAXE. At the moment just using the 08M chip to test stuff. I've written some code in LabVIEW to send serial information to the PICAXE. LabVIEW is configured to output a string. I know that I can send strings. Can I send integers/numbers? I want to send a number from LabVIEW in the form of a string to a PICAXE chip. Then the PICAXE chip uses that number in a subroutine.
I thought,
serin 1, N4800_8, ("START"),w5
would work, as I output *START,1000* from LABVIEW thinking 1000 would be put into w5 but it doesn't.
Do I need to convert the 1000 into a special sort of format or?
Could someone shed some light on the matter please.
Thanks
Kamilan
