Hippy or Technical care to comment? Regards, Mort.

This would be super helpful. Now 25-08-23, is there any further progress with this very hopeful addition to PE6? Regards, Mort.

Thanks guys. Hippy's suggestion solved the issue. Regards, Mort.

Hi All, I have this unusual thing happening when I open PE6 and also when I open the Terminal Window within PE6. After clicking OK, the Editor is completely usable without issue, same at the terminal window, however I get this dialog box upon opening and I don't know why. Not a single other...

And for those of you playing along at home, to further add to Alan's comment... To provide protection when using an ADC input and NOT have any influence on the divider ratio, a rail to rail op-amp could be added to the circuit and used as a 'buffer' like shown in this diagram. In this...

I too encourage the addition of the 5V1 zener to cover any unexpected higher voltages. Additionally for future reference, this voltage divider calculator may be helpful. Regards, Mort.

Thanks for the responses boys. Given that I am very grateful to both of you for your rapid help ANY time I have had queries/questions with PICAXE, in this instance I am prepared to create a suitable breakout board with a basic 1K/2K level shifter (5V to 3.3V) for the proximity module UART input...

Really? 18 days, 122 views and NIL responses? Not even a brief sigh or similar from Alley Cat, Hippy or Technical or anyone of that nature? This is most unexpected. Regards, Mort.

Hello Forum users & Ultimate PICAXE Guru's (I know YOU are here! :)) I am wondering if ANYONE here has had a dabble with these fancy little devices. HLK-LD2410B They really are quite impressive (and extremely cheap). Configuration and communication can be done via either the HLKRadarTool...

Uninstalled Avast Anti-virus... PE6 has now fully returned to completely working correctly. I can now: Save As... - No problems. Open File - No problems. and of course EVERYTHING else. After a quick Google search and 20 clicks of all different Anti-virus REVIEW sites, it appears Total AV is...

Ok... I have made a slight error in my analysis. I can actually SAVE (Not Save As...). I can open any .BAS file by clicking on the file from Windows Explorer and it opens fine in PE6. I can then make any changes I want to a program and I can upload it to a chip no problem. What I can't do is...

Have/had already run: FULL Avast scan - No detection's. FULL MalwareBytes scan - No detection's. SFC /SCANNOW - No integrity violations found. CHKDSK - No file system or bad sectors found. Wise Registry Cleaner - Apparently found errors and fixed them. (Does this really do anything of value...

No. And yes it has always seemed to be quite flaky so I have not specifically used it for this very reason. I have used it previously with other systems and found it to be more of a pain than a benefit. I already have .NET Framework v4.8 installed. I have Win 7 Ultimate x64 (Should have...

Has this problem been resolved with a solution? I now too have this issue. I can't OPEN a file or SAVE or SAVE As. PE6 just hangs and goes to (Not Responding). Clicking anywhere once I try to SAVE, SAVE As or OPEN, I just get PICAXE Editor is not responding. CLOSE or WAIT dialog box. I have...

Hi Alan, Just having a play around with a few OLED's. Once again ""THANK YOU!!!"", you are the man. Your posts on this forum are absolutely priceless. Words cannot express how grateful I am personally of your contributions in particular. If ever you come to Brisbane, Australia, look me up...
