infraout command

[microman171]

I am making a laser tag system with the PICAXE 18A and was looking at the infraout command, I thought 'awsome!' because that would meen I could have different signals easy. But when I was looking againI saw that it was for the 08M only. Why is this? I really need infraout.

Thanks Microman171

Yes only the 08M's have this but you could put an 08M next to your 18A and the 18A could direct the 08M what to do via a serial connection. You could use something like the following.

'18A output pin0 is connected to input pin1 of the 08M

'18A Program
Serout 0,T2400,("IRDATA",b0)

'08M Program
Serin 1,T2400,("IRDATA",b0)
infraout 0,b0
