INIT: Command. Where is it documented?

[elanman99]

I am just getting into Picaxe usage and got my first project working. It is for controlling a servo based pan and tilt unit using up/down and Left/Right momentary switches.

Whilst it does work I do get odd twitches from having 2 servos on an 18X chip so may resort to using two separate 8 pin devices if I run out of patience.

My question though is that in many of the code examples in the picaxe documentation the INIT command is used but I cannot find any instructions relating to its usage.

I've text searched the PDF manuals without success. Am I missing something really obvious?

Welcome to the forum.

There is no such command as Init.
It is often used as a label for the start of a routine used to initiate hardware.

Thanks for the super speedy reply!

Before posting my question I spent half an hour searching the forum but missed the one you linked to. Actually it was half an hour well spent because I learned lots of other things.

Always pays to have a search but the titles are often fairly meaningless such as "Urgent... help needed" or spelled wrong
I happened to remember that one so found it quite quickly.
