I am currently working on a project where I would like to use a picaxe. Let me see if I can provide enough information to start.
I have a sequencer that operates on AC voltage. It uses a coil heater to heat an element that closes contacts. The resistance of the coil determines the time it takes...
I am trying this new project using a picaxe.
I have a heat pump in my boat that I can no longer get a control board for,
so I am left with replacing the unit (Meggabucks) or fabricating my own controller.
I am familiar with control circuits so that portion is a no brainer for me. The Picaxe...
I am working on a project that requires basically 5 timers.
It is for the clocking of a sequencer. The sequencer basically works like this:
There are 5 sets of contacts on the sequencer that open and close at different time intervals.
Applying the appropriate voltage to the sequencer starts a...
I am trying to drive a low current 5VDC relay with a Darlington driver (ULN2003). When I try to drive it with the driver it chatters.
I have a good solid 5VDC supply, and have connected it as in the Manual3 shows. I do not have a Diode across the coil. Should I have one? I can drive the relay...
Hello all,
I am new to the Picaxe and this forum.
I have recently purchased my first Processor for a project that I am working on. (a 20M).
I chose this one because it seemed the simplest for the project that I was working on. After placing the order something in the specifications grabbed my...
