I recently decided to dig out an old picaxe project I hadnt looked at for about 2 years. I used an old picaxe 18 chip (discontinued) to do 16 adc reads and then transmit the data via RS232. I got my oscilloscope out the other day to see how fast it was streaming data out and it looked like it...

Hi guys, I really would like to get a little bit more out of my picaxe.net server, it has such a lot of potential; but it just seems like a bit of an uphill struggle to unlock it. From experience a few years back I used the older Microchip picdem.net server device in a project for work and was...

Hi Guys, I though I would share my latest robotics project. Im building a robot tank. I was planning to be able to remotely control the tank either using a normal radio control handset or with a wireless network. I built a pair of Electronic speed controls for the tank tracks using Picaxe 18...

Hi guys, I decided to have a little play with my picaxe.net server today. What I was planning on doing was outputiing milford instruments compatible serial servo controller strings from the serial output of the picaxe.net. Strings would be in the format 255,0,127 etc I have read the manual and...

Are there any plans to release the AXE027 as a small PCB instead of just being built into a cable? I think you guys would make a fortune if you did.

Ive been playing with my Picaxe.net kit and learning about HTML etc. I noticed that some of demos periodically refresh the webpage every 3 seconds or so. I wondered if there was a way I could change the refresh rate or whether that was coded into the firmware on the 18F4552 chip?

Just a quick question, I purchased a picaxe.net the other day and it looks like it has a lot of project potential. The manual says that it supports TCP/IP protocol and I wondered if using this it would be possible to implement ultra simple client/server comms? Literally sending and recieving...

Hi guys, I wondered if anyone could help me. I've written some code for bidirectional serial communications using a standard picaxe 18. Ive managed to get around the serin wait forever problem so my program does useful stuff while it waits for a valid bayte on its serial input. That all works...

Hi guys. I was just wondering would it be legal for somebody to write and distribute a program that automatically generated PICAXE basic code? I suppose this it would be a bit like the flow chart utility. The program wouldnt be a compiler as such, just a program that fires out picaxe basic code...

Ive done some quite complicated things with picaxes, but it occured to me the other day the one simple thing I had never done was read a simple digital input. I know it sounds stupid but can anybody remind me what the syntax is to read the state of say pin0 on a Picaxe 18? - Thanks!

Hi all. I expect everybodys already asked this question before, but is it possible to transmit serial data with a Picaxe 28X at 9600. If so, does it need a different resonator for that and can anybody suggest a resonator for this frequency?

Im using picaxe 18s for use in simple remote positioning servomotors. The picaxe accepts a pwm demand signal (standard radio control signal or servo command) and reads back an error signal from a pot. Now the system Ive got seems to work reasonably well for low precision tracking, but I was...
