    Thank you both, I was sure it was an hexadecimal number but I had not seen that format before.

    i2c address format

    I am trying to work out the formatting system for i2c addressing. All the addresses shown in the 'axe110 using using picaxe with i2c' sheet are in binary but the address for the BH1750 light meter module I wish to use is 0x23, in fact all the i2c modules I can find have their addresses in this...

    AXE027 drivers

    I finally got it working and the answer was on my new computer (only a few weeks old) the AXE027 will not work on a USB 3.0 port but it will work on a USB 2.0.

    AXE027 drivers

    I finally managed to get the drivers to load but I didn't try them out (had enough for one day). The next day I turned on the computer, Windows 10 told me I had a "problem" did a system restore and uninstalled them again. I note that the Rev Ed documentation for the AXE027 is dated 2013 and so...

    AXE027 drivers

    I have been using the AXE027 ever since they became available on both XP and Windows 7 without any of these problems. I have given up with Windows 10 and gone back to my laptop which is running XP.

    AXE027 drivers

    Having followed your instructions I made a little progress. Windows tells me the AXE027 is ready to go and the editor tells me com 3 is ready to use. Device Manager / Other Devices shows the cable again with a yellow exclaimation mark however when I try to update the driver Windows tells me it...

    AXE027 drivers

    I have just been forced to change to Windows 10 and I really can't remember if I have tried to program any chips since then but now my AXE027 has a driver problem. Windows device manager/USB controllers tells me the device is working properly but device manager/other devices and devices and...

    irin command in a sub procedure

    I am trying to get a 14M2 to align a stepper motor based on breaking an IR beam. I am going to a sub procedure containing an irin command before each step but the stepper is not working because despite what the simulation shows the program is not returning from the sub procedure. The timeout...

    PWM command driving an IR LED

    Using the circuits from the manuals I’m trying to get an 08M to drive an IR LED using the command pwmout 2, 25, 53. When I use infraout 1, 55 the receiver works perfectly and triggers another Picaxe (later I want to get a single 08M to do both jobs). When I use the PWM command the...

    18X i2c slave address

    I have just started to investigate i2c. Having no i2c devices thought I would set up a couple of 18X's, one as a master and one as a slave to have a play with. If I understand the datasheet this should be possible also I assume I can use 0000 as a start address but what would the slave address...

    Moisture proof ulrtasonic rangefinder

    I want to use an SRF005 inside a water tank so it is going to be very damp. The board is no problem but the transducers must be exposed, does anyone know if the transducers on the SRF005 are moisture proof? I tried replacing the originals with a pair of Jaycar AU5550's on flying leads and...

    Memory verification failed

    If I plug my breadboard with only an 08M on it, via a serial to USB adapter into my laptop which is running editor ver. 5.1.3 and download a simple program all is well. If I plug the same board, same adapter and same power supply into my desktop now running ver. 5.3.3 all I can get is Memory...

    18X gosubs

    page 56 manual2 list the 18X as having 255 gosubs available but when I check the syntax of a program in the 18X mode the compile error tells me that ony 16 gosubs are allowed.

    18M dying

    I have been driving an LCD display with an 18M via R330 resistors. No problem at 1st then the download started falling over after which the computer couldn't see the chip at all. Change chips, same story. The 08Ms, 14Ms have no problem with downloads only the 18Ms so it must be the chips...

    2 pin stepper motor control

    Hi, Never done this before. it took me ages to even work out how to post a new thread, hope I got it right now. I can drive a 6 wire unipolar stepper in dual-phase mode with an 08M via a ULN2003 using 4 ouputs no problem. The code: main: b1 = 10 'pause let dirs = %10111...
