Hi. You are right, one digit is slightly dimmer than the other. When I download your code, the counting start, but when it reach 99, it start to show some other characters. One digit shows the symbol for 10-15, from the above table. Guess we have to insert an ifstatement? - nerdegutta

When I click Open or File->Open in LinAXEpad, the program terminates. That's happening wether I'm a user or sudo. Frustrating. Attached is dmesg | tail > error.txt Got some general protection error in libpixman... Oh, well... I'll deal with it later. However, the virtual win7 works fine. -...

Hi. I've noticed something strange. My setup is as follows: Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit LinAXEpad RevEds USB - Serial converter This works kind of OK. But I have to runLinAXEpad as root, or I won't get access to the serial port. I tried almost everything. I'm OK with that. On this Ubuntu PC, I've...

Hi. I'm trying to learn how to multiplex a 2-digit 7 segment display. Do anyone have any links or, tutorials on this? This is my schematic, it's on a breadboard - for now... This is my code: #no_data symbol lDelay = 200 symbol digit1 = c.0 symbol digit2 = c.1 let dirsb = %111111 main...

Hi. I've got a fresh Kubuntu 14.04 installation and I've downloaded LinAXEPad, but I have a missing library. When I try to run the program, I get this error: ./LinAXEpad: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory A...

I've read the manual, but I haven't found any place this is described. The Setup command is: HI2CSetup I2CMaster, %1010dddx, I2SFast, I2CWord When A2, A1 and A0 is grounded on the PCB. What should the ddd look like? - nerdegutta

I think there is some strange things with the SaveTo24LC16B procedure: SaveTo24LC16B: If MemPos > $7FF Then EpromFull ' if MemPos is bigger than 2048 then eeprom is full deviceID = Mempos / 256 * 2 | $A0 ' configuring the deviceID HI2CSetup I2CMASTER, deviceID, I2CSlow, I2Cbyte '...

With reference to this thread: http://www.picaxeforum.co.uk/showthread.php?24517-Oh-no-not-another-GPS-logger The logger is set to save data every 7 sec. I haven't bothered to save the date from the GPS, but I save lat, lon, hour and minute. I was wondering why the time is not saved in the...

Hi. With reference to this: http://www.picaxeforum.co.uk/showthread.php?24490-24LC16b-EEPROM-explanation-please&p=245770&viewfull=1#post245770 I've checked the box labeled "Simulate EEPROM on i2c bus" When I click the simulate button, the simulation start, but I don't see the EEPROM. I can...

Hi, so I've made a GPS logger. Everything seems to work fine, but when I read the data back from the 24LC16b EEPROM, something strange is happening. It looks like the EEPROM address has moved one place too far. I've not seen any pattern. Sometime all data is read back perfect, and other times...

Hi. Can someone please explain to me how to use the 24LC16b EEPROM? I need to store 18 bytes as many times as I can. If I understand correctly: Block 000 can store 256 bytes Block 001 can store 256 bytes Block 010 can store 256 bytes Block 100 can store 256 bytes Block 111 can store 256...

Hi. Do PE autosave before a program is downloaded to a PICAXE? I can't seem to find any info about it...:confused: - nerdegutta

Hi. What is the fastest way to erase the 24LC16B EEPROM? I've tried to overwrite with zeroes, but it takes really long time. - nerdegutta

Hi. Is there any difference in 14m2's B.1 and 08m2's C.1 when working with serin? Shouldn't I be able to change IC and change from B.1 to C.1? When 14m2 is in breadboard, it works. Changing to 08m2 and C.1, it's not working. To me, that is very strange.... - nerdegutta

Hi. 1. Link to stepper motor. 2. A schematic is attached. 3. No camera available at the moment... :( 4. The code: #picaxe 14m2 #no_data symbol dir_pin = pinc.0 symbol step_pin = pinc.1 dirsB = %1111111 main: if dir_pin = 0 and step_pin = 1 then let b1 = b1 + 1 gosub step2 endif if...
