Hello Hippy, thanks for you reply, It seems I was right to use pinsb. I also wasn't aware of differences in the programming of the M2 chips, the four PICAXE instruction series don't mention that. I take on board that setting E can be a problem and I will try your solution.

this is the file in question 'LCD 4-bitdirect 'OPTIONS PICAXE-18M2 symbol latchout=1 symbol lcddata=1 symbol lcdinst=0 symbol outbyte=b0 symbol rs=b1 symbol counter=b2 symbol nblcount=b3 rs=lcdinst for counter=0 to 5 lookup counter, ($33, $32, $28,$0C, $01, $06)...

Hi all, I am tying to access a 1602 LCD using a Basic program from a book PICAXE Microcontroller, by David Lincoln. I have attached the file. PICAXE 18M2 used. The pins variable is flagged as an error during syntax check so I tried pinsb, which is accepted but no data appears when the LCD is...

Thanks for your reply neil

Thanks for the reply Bear

Hi all, has anyone interfaced a INA219 current sensor to a PICAXE 18M2

OK Busby, you spotted my typo

From PICAXE headquarters. For those interested, use of assembler can be enabled by selecting thr File sub menu, then Options and then the Compiler section, WJEC-ASSEMBLER for the 18M2, 21X1 and 28X can be selected from PICAXE type drop-down . I should have known that a facility such as this...

Thanks Buzby, so I wasn't mistaking what I saw, it's disapointing it,s not a real assembler, but I may have a look.

Hi Westaus55. I do have v6.1.0.0 but I saw on the PICAXE website that a version V6.9 had the facilty to program in assembler. I did ask PICAXE directly where I could get V6.9 but have had no reply yet. Thanks for your quick response.

I would like to program PICAXE cchips with assembler, where can I get a download for v6.9 please

Thanks again Hippy, the book I am using is I suppose mainly for standard PIC. Maybe it'll be better to start slowly.

Thanks for yor reply hippy, I had thought there was a special case for PORTB. I changed the program to #DEFINE PORTB = 6 and the syntax check passed but in simulation there is no output showing. Simulating an 18M2+. THe following is the program as shown in the book, any thoughts? symbol...

I have returned to trying to program PICAXE using PIC Basic Programming and Projects (Dogan Ibrahim) using PICAXE Editor. In project 3 four symbols are defined: symbol TRISB = =134 symbol PORTB = 6 symbol led = B0 symbol ms500 = 500 when I check the program in PICAXE editor it shows a syntax...

Hi all, can anyone help with my problem in understanding picaxe information, I am 81 and slow on the uptake. I have all of the necessary hardware required but I want to use as my target a Magenta PIC16C64 tutorial pcb which I can modify as required but I can't figure out where each wire from...
