Hi,
I'm a university student at Newcastle and I have recently purchased PICAXE software to help me with a project of mine.
I have got to be able to set up a system of two spinning wheels on seperate motors (miniature DC motors) but when one wheel is set to a higher speed a programme has to recognise this and brake the wheel untill they are rotating at the same speed.
So far I have worked out how to rig up the experiment but even though I keep trying to learn Im finding that I still dont know what programme to write that would allow a PICAXE18X chip to turn on a brake if a motor is running to fast.
Any help that anyone can give would be really appreciated becasue I am really struggling.
Thanks,
Russel
