Thanks for your replyThe RF magic software is fairly simple to use. The default is RS485 and you might want to change that to RS232, but then again, talking directly to a picaxe, you would just use the TTL pins. RS232 could still be useful linking a module to a PC.
Next issue is the baud rate, and while 9600 is nice, it might be a bit fast for some of the picaxes. So you might have to drop that.
Those are the only two settings that need changing. The only other complexity is setting up the module on a breadboard in order to program it. Manuka has a couple of modules so stay tuned for some photos soon...
If not, can I make them 'talk' with whatever default settings they come with? I will be using either 18X's or 08M's.
Also once again this is my very first attempt at using anything wireless, so please forgive my ignorence. Would I be correct in thinking that I simply hook up the picaxe input/output pins to pins 4 and 5 of this transciever(RXD/TXD) and send serial commands as if they were wired together?
Thank you for your help
