LCD: Out to In on pic. In to Out on pic. Serial mode. When the Lcd,Out to Pic serIn is used the picaxe will not be recognized by software to download information. Im sure the reason is simple, maybe I simply dont need that anyway in serial. I did try a 10k pulldown on the pics serIn... no change. But works great as long as I do not connect the lcd's out, to the pics in.

The PICAXE has a Download Serial In which allows programs to be downloaded to the PICAXE. If you connect the LCD output to that it will likely cause problems like you describe.

But other digital input pins can receive serial data. Connect to one of those and everything should be fine.
