For anyone interested in: I simulated rolls with 5 dices. Results on http://www.hesinije.nl/Fibonacci/Dices.html Any improvements welcome. regards, Herman

Dear all, If this has been posted before then please return me the link, if not: has anyone ever built a PC cd-rom drive controller with a picaxe to play audio CD's? I'd like to connect a picaxe to a stand alone PC CD-rom drive to control start, stop, next track and previous track. And, if...

Dear all, Now the 28X1 has the SPI bus available I think of several daisy chained slaves with one master. Would this be possible? Thanks, Herman, NL

Dear all, I have the Picaxe 18 Project board (CHI030) with all inputs modified for digital use. The ULN driver IC is fed by 20V and the Picaxe 18 by 5V from a 78L05 also fed by the 20V by a series resistor of 470R. The level of the input signals is 20V so a voltage divider is created by 33k...

Hi all, For an application I need serial communication at 2400 baud with 8 bits + 2 stop bits or, equivalent, 9 bits + 1 stop bit. The Picaxe can only communicate with 8 bits + 1 stop bit. So I think an external hardware solution has to be made. Has anyone some experience on using an external...

Dear all, Does anyone know if there are any examples somewhere on programming a picaxe as an i2c slave device? There seem to be lots of examples about programming a pic as i2c slave but I don't speak the pic language. thanks, Herman, NL

Hi all, I have the Astrosyn stepper motor (Y129-5) as supplied by my Picaxe supplier. I build the circuit as in manual 3 of the Picaxe manual but it does not work. When I measure the resistance between the wires I measure the following: orange -> yellow 182 Ohm orange -> black 99 Ohm...

Might be obsolete. But, ever wondered how to alternate between the colours of a bi-coloured LED with two legs without reversing the polarity of the power supply? Just connect each leg to e.g. output pins 1 and 2, then toggle the pins in such a way that when pin 1 is high pin 2 is low or when pin...

Hi all, Has anyone ever programmed a serial keyboard emulator into a picaxe? I like to do the following: send a character to a picaxe (e.g. an 18X) by RS232 communication, then the picaxe converts this character and sends it to a device on the output, for example the serial keyboard input of a...
