    changed username

    i everyone, I attempted to log in with my username, and failed, hence I used my email address. It appears that my username has changed from 'kevrus' to 'krevrus'. I have never used 'krevrus' and looking at previous posts, (admittedly from a few years ago), it can be seen that others have used...

    variable resetting when changing slot

    According to the manual... "To run the second program (after downloading with a #slot 1 directive) use the command ‘run 1’. This command stops the current program and starts the second program running immediately. Variables and pin conditions are not reset, so can be shared between the...

Using an 18x, DS18B20 and a 2x16 display. internal temp reading is taken 5 times and the average is used for display and control. This I may alter if it proves unsuitable. Picture of unit fitted into the car is...

    28x2 possible sim error...or is it me?

    28x2 and hintsetup ...what am I doing wrong?

    After migrating a working program from a 28x1 to a 28x2, I noticed an interrupt issue. In a nutshell, I can't seem to get out of the interrupt routine...here's a test routine thats using INT 0 (B.0). It goes to interrupt when B.0 = 1, but keeps jumping back into the interrupt routine when B.0=0...

    DTMF relay controller

    Here's a little project that i've completed...just for the sake of it as I got the DTMF decoder chips for £0.76 each. As with all my projects, they are quite basic both in complexity and coding. It uses a DTMF decoder chip and a 20M, and after a certain number of rings, the call is...

    Disaster has struck

    Here's a strange thing. I thought I would try out 'logmein.com' so I could access my PC from work. Everything worked like a dream, I could access my PC as though I was actually there. I opened up various programs with no problems including program editor, and was able to close them all down...

    Binary Clock

    This is nothing fancy, but I thought i'd post it anyway. My youngest daughter gave me a picture frame for fathers day a couple of years ago and I never got around to putting a pic (no pun intended) in it, so, to put it to good use, and also to have my first attempt at using surface mount stuff...

    2 channel frost stat

    Here's a couple of pics (no pun intended) of my 2 channel frost stat. It uses an 18x and a 4x20 lcd dispay. The initial requirement was to just provide adjustable seperate upstairs and downstairs frost protection from one central point on my zoned central heating system. It then progressed...

    additional 18x output?

    I had a quick search but couldnt find anything, so is there a way of poking a register to make either the serout download pin or another input pin on an 18x into a digital output? I can't easily use any form of multiplexing and don't really want to use a 28x, I could use a separate 08 but would...

    I think I may be a little stupid, ive read various posts regarding readtemp12 negative temps but I still can't seem to follow how to write the code. This is what i'm using at present for positive temps to 1 decimal place: (copied from somewhere but I cant remember where, although I do follow it...
