Can I access basic variables eg b1 in blockly

I am using an 08M2 and find that the time variable is taking much longer than a second to update at 4 mhz do the serout and serin commands affect the timer variable?

Hi has anyone had any success with the alpha modules? I am using bit bang SPI on an plain 18 but so far I have not been able to change anything on the transmitter module. I have checked and double checked that the right signals are going to the right pins with an oscilloscope but the alpha...

Can I reuse an old picaxe 18 by reprogramming it with other code with a pic programmer or does the code protection prevent this. I have tried to do this but the picprog software says it does not recognise the chip (16F627)

I am getting an error saying that program editor.msi cannot be found part way through the install of the latest version of the program editor software. i have tried both the direct installer and also the iso image. the older version 5.27 will install but the new version won't could this be due...

Does anyone know what the maximum count frequency is for 'settimer' is when it is used in the external counter mode. I expect it will be much greater than the count command which will be useful for a frequency counter.

Hi I am looking for some code to convert an integer number into ascii components to output to a parallel interfaced alphnumeric LCD one digit at a time.

You may have seen my post about pulsin in the picaxe forum where I have a problem with pulsin needing a start edge and a finish edge to time I would like to be abe to time from when pulsin (or some new command)is called to when a pulse ends. Barry

Is it possible to send a filename and path as a parameter to picprog.exe so that it can be used say proton pic basic Barry

I have come across 2 problems of timing pulses which cannot be solved with pulsin 1. A radio control channel mixer needs to measure 2 consecutive pulses but the picaxe cannot respond quick enough to catch the start of the next pulse. 2. I have a polaroid 6500 ultrasound transducer which is...

I would find a pulsin command that waited and did not time out useful,also for radio modules a serin and serout that did manchester encoding and crc checking would be great

According to RF solutions sending plain serial data over rf modules will give very poor results as many have already found.The solutions seem to be 1. use easy radio modules (recent posts indicate this is not as straight foreward as it seems) 2. RF solutions produce chips which will do the...

I am making a light gate to measure the time it takes a card to pass through it for physics experiments does anyone know how to over come the limitation of pulsin timing out every .6 seconds which will miss a proportion of readings.

I get an error message saying Can't run 16-bit Windows program Cannot find file <picaxe18x.exe> (or one of its librarys). Check to ensure the path and filename are correct and that all required libraries are available. when i click the program pic button

I have been in contact with crocodile clips but they do not think they are obliged to support this part of the package they sell! I think that even if you provide this part of the software they should take an active role in ensuring that it works as they are making money from selling it. So the...
