PicAxe_Program behaves differently after pull the USB-plug :-(

I have the PicAxe Starterset AXE002X with 18X with following circuit:

Input Pin 1 , 2 , 6 , 7 on Buttons
Output Pin 1 , 2 ,3 , 4 , 5 , 6 on color LEDs


My iBook is connected about a USB-Serial-Adapter to the PicAxe 18X.
I'll send my Programm with the Mac OSX PowerPC compilers (command line)
and my programm works flawlessly

Push Button on Pin1 = red LED lights on Output 5
Push Button on Pin2 = blue LED lights on Output 2
Push Button on Pin6 = white LED lights on Output 1
Push Button on Pin6 = other white LED lights on Output 6

Orange LED on Output 4 flashes independently and fast
Green LED on Output 3 flashes independently and slow

But:

when i quit the connection to the computer or pull the USB-plug
the Program works faulty :-(
precise :
red LED on Output 5 lights and flickers totally uncontrolled nevertheless have
unpressed Button on Pin1.

what is the cause ?

Hello eclectic, her is my Code. Thank you for help me

Different behaviour with/without the programming lead means a circuit error.
Either, you do not have the correct download circuit or you have missed out the pull-up/down resitors on your button inputs and/or no pull-up on the reset pin.

 

[Loonarrix]

Thank you for the tip.

For the Input Pin 1 : I have a 10 k resistor are soldered.
And now the the circuit is working correctly !!!

 

[BeanieBots]

Thanks for letting us know you fixed it.
You should have 10k on ALL used inputs for reliable opperation.
