Hi, I would like to know if the picaxe is capable of 9 bit serial and if so could someone help or advise me on how to achieve this. I have a G4 panel and keypad and the ability to logic analyse the data should it be required. this is a link to a site where I have found the information, I have...

Hi, in the following statement if location does not=27 the code continues from the serout point, the only way I can get it to run as expected is to change it to the code listed beneath. I know its probably me but I was just after an explanation as to why. Rich if location=27 then gosub homeLCD...

A quick question, when you use boot i2c to update slot0 does the command have to run from slot0? I have updated for a long time now slots 1,2,3 no problem with the booti2c updates zone running in slot3 but i have just tried to update slot0 the same way and it fails. I programed a blank chip to...

Hi the following code comes up with a syntax error, but when I replace sensor1 for d.6 it compiles. Any ideas or is this an editor problem? Thanks Rich #picaxe 40x2 Symbol Sensor2=d.7 Symbol Sensor1=d.6 main: readadc10 Sensor1, b1 goto main ERROR MESSAGE readadc10 Sensor1, b1 ^...

Has anybody had experience with the APA102 RGB 5050 LED or know if the Picaxe has the power to drive such a device, according to the following website they use generic 2-wire SPI (well the website actually says genertic) Rich...

Hi, I have just been playing with a 14m2 and have a quick question. is there any reason the below code works fine in example A but not example B. I have also ran the same tests on a 28x2 and all is good at both these baud rates, the serial data is coming from a PC. A: serin [800,main]...

Hi, I have just started to play with Booti2c on a 28x2, looking at the example in the manual and the basic commands above it states booti2c 1 to update from eeprom. is this an error as I can only get it to work by using booti2c 4 to update slot0 for my particular project and not booti2c 0, also...

Hi, I have a Digole graphics LCD driver and I am driving it using its serial input and it works great, I just want to change the start up screen. I have used the software that they provide on the website to convert the image but I do not understand the manual. I have the data I want to send in...

Hi Guys, I was just after some pointers with regards to communications over a serial link and wondered if the following would be suffice for a wired or wireless setup? the main code has yet to be written I am more interested in the data link first any advice on improving things is much...

Hi, I want to measure a solar panels output using an ADC input but before I begin just wanted to know if this is a potential divider issue or does somebody know of a better method. I will use a 14m2 and a panel capable of outputting 6v at 250ma, the Picaxe will be 3.3v regulated from a separate...

Hi, please could you help me with the following problem, I am trying to output time and date received in two separate variables into single variables and then sertxd out the result. the following code works but I need it to show the zeros before time and date where needed, I am sure its...

Hi, I have a Kenwood double din stereo in my car, I also have a stalk control adaptor that converts the steering wheel buttons from IBUS to a pulse out, this means I can control the Kenwood from the steering wheel no problem. What I now want to do is use a Picaxe to count the pulses from the...

I have no idea where to start on this but i could really use an auto-baud function on my 14m2, i have three different RFID modules and each one is fixed at a different baud rate 4800,9600,19200. Would it be possible for a PICAXE to detect and change the serin baud rate using only software and...

Hi i was just after some advice with regards to the osc protocol and its compatibility with a picaxe. I have read up on the protocol and from what I can make of it the touchosc app pumps out float32. So my question is do I need a maths coprocessor to read this data stream into a picaxe. I can...

Here is some code that may help one of you out one day if using the small 20x4 EA DIP204-4 LCD. I decided to use this LCD as it is far smaller than the other 20x4 displays available and so can make your designs look far more appealing. i stumbled across a few problems when first initialising...

i need advidice on how i would go about reading a snapshot of a picaxe 28x2 output pins status and then decoding that information into a readable format to output on an lcd for eg: output 1 is on or output 1 and 7 is on and output 0 2 3 4 5 6 are off how difficult would this be? and do you have...

I have a 20x4 lcd connected through an axe033 and i can get information onto the display but after 12 characters are displayed on the first line it starts to duplicate characters 13 to 20 at the start of the next line for example pause 500 serout 4,n2400, (254,1) pause 30 serout 4,n2400...
