    Batch programming tool

    Hi forumites, I remember being mentioned here a tool for batch programming which requires only some pads on the pcb and the tool works by pressing the contacts on the pads. I think the brand is 3M but I am not sure. I know is quite a vague description and this is a long shot but can anyone...

    Maths ADC and non linear formula help.

    Some points to note: 1. The independent variable (x-axis in our case) is ADC reading and not the voltage. That is, we are reading ADC and try to calculate the voltage. 2. The data sampled for the low voltage values are not at the same interval(5V, 10V, 15V) as higher voltages (25V) As such...

    Timer interrupt

    The following program should interrupt every 1 second and toggle an LED. However it does not. The board used is AXE401 with an 28x2 [version B.3]. Am I missing something about interrupts? #picaxe 28X2 #no_data #no_table setfreq M8 ' HARDWARE DEFINITITIONS...

    Cant download prog to 18m2

    I have to disagree with Technical, MCP2200 can be used to program Picaxe, here is proof.

    Cant download prog to 18m2

    Simbad, if you receive the Helo message then your MCP works fine. See attached. If still no joy, power the picaxe with 3 fresh AA bateries and make common ground with MCP2200, then try to program.

    08M2 Temperature sensing with MCP9700

    A good alternative to DS18B20 temperature sensor is MCP9700. It costs just a fraction of the first one and gives out very good results. However it doesn't seem to get much attention so here is an introduction.

    Syntax parser (small) bug

    This code: if b0 = 1 then b1 = 1 end else b1= 0 endif passes the syntax check and works ok in silicon. However not exactly what it should mean. Also, dirsb = value passes the syntax on an 08M2 where only port C is available. PE version 5-5-1. Regards, Svejk
