Hi All, Can someone please explain the main differences/benefits between the AXE020 – 28 pin project board and the AXE401 - 28X2 Shield Base board? Also, what is the best to use with a LCD or OLED? The FMR010 serial chip or the 18m2 based AXE132 Serial OLED/LCD driver board? I know I need...

I have a quick question about a typical lcd. Pins 15 & 16 are the back light connections to 5v & gnd. My question is can I connect the 5v directly or should a use say a 1k resistor? Thanks Nat

Could someone please confirm for me that the FRM010 LCD firmware chip works with a 20x4 & 20x2 line LCD display. It doesn't seem to mention it in the notes (unless I have missed it). www.rev-ed.co.uk/docs/FRM010.pdf Thanks Nat

Hi All, Can someone please confirm for me what are the baud rates are for the different chips. M, X and X1, The manual doesn’t clearly state what they are. (Or is it just me?) On page 141 (section2) it says that 4800 baud rate is only available on the X parts. Does that mean that’s the...

Hi All, I intend to have a picaxe 28x1/40x1 controlling a 5 digit 7 segment led counter, it counts in 1 second increments using a DS1307 ic. The leds are driven by decoder/latch drivers. I would like to be able to control (start, pause, reset, resume etc) it remotely, say up to 60 odd metres...

Hi All, When using the circuit from Manual 2, page 78 the infrared circuit I was wondering does it matter what type the 4.7uF capacitor is. I was thinking it should be an Electrolytic type or maybe a Tantalum. Can someone enlighten me on what it should be and why. Thanks Nat

Hi All, I was hoping I could get some hints from the experts. I’m fairly new to the picaxe and programming and was hoping I could get some hints on my program (be gentle please). What I have is a cabinet I would like to place a fan that will turn on when it reaches a certain temperature and...

Hi all, I am using a 08m chip and trying to do this: "If b1 >= 29 and b1<= 31 then gosub Try1" It keeps coming up with a syntax error. Thanks for any help cheers Nat

I am using the DS1307 rtc and outputting an external (1 second) pulse to the 28x1 input0 (leg 11). I would like to use it as an external counter and then use this counter for another use. I know that I have to set the timer like this "settimer count 65535" and the special timer variable will...

Can someone please tell me why I am getting a syntax error on this piece of code if b0 = 0 AND portc pin0 = 1 then jump Thanks Natalie
