Hi to everyone.
I am relatively new to programming, but I am pleased I found picaxe. It seems alot easier to understand than arduino and seems to be (in my opinion) supported better with good documentation.
The problem I have is that I would like to know how to calibrate 2 potentiometers so that they can be used to proportionately control the period and duty cycle of a pwm output.
I have read the manuals but I could not really find the answer.
Another question, Can someone tell me if it is possible to make analog outputs with picaxe?
Last question could someone please take the time to explain in layman's terms the difference between hexadecimal and ordinary language.
I have the programming picaxe book and it seems to switch between the 2 types (more if you include binary etc.) but I find it is not too clear for a novice and when I see things like %02, I have no idea how to interpret it, or how to translate it into normal code.
I would prefer to stick to just basic language if at all possible
Many thanks
Steve
