    I2C on LCD and Picaxe

    Hi, JPU: I had a similar experience, so I posted my version of a "how to" which deals with an inexpensive LCD using i2c (PCF8475A/HD44780) interfaced to an 18M2 chip. The thread describes the project and the uploaded program is self-documenting. Hope it helps! URL...

    PICAXE 18M2 i2c to PCF8475A/HD44780 based 2x16 LCD Project

    Preamble: I've built a couple of the directly wired 18M2 to LCD controller boards that use the PICAXE BASIC code and it works fine: a great 1 wire solution! Nevertheless, I wanted to figure out how to use i2c to control one of those cheap 2x16 LCD's with the i2c piggy-back PCB. I looked...

    Problem : Shell failed

    Hi, Hippy! While I have a similar problem, it doesn't seem to be a problem with the AXE027 cable as I can start AXEPAD in my MAC PowerBook and use the terminal to verify that correct I/O is occurring with a PICAXE 08M2. Therefore the AXE027 drivers are making correctly. My take on this issue...

    Using serrxd Under Linux Based Control

    Greetings: I'm working on a project to send commands to a PICAXE 18M2 MCU's serial I/O pin (serrxd) via a Linux based RS232 serial port. While redundant, the programming function is turned off using the 'disconnect' command earlier in the program. I'm able to receive data just fine, but...
