    Code for receiving data from Nordic key FOB - SparkFun

    I have a Nordic RF transceiver module and a key FOB from SparkFun that I wanted to get working with a PICAXE 20M2. I had some Basic Stamp code that I worked on a few months ago, so I just had to convert it. I am attaching the code in case anyone might be interested. Here is program output...

    Manual Error - SPI shiftout_MSBFirst routine

    I was trying to use the SPI shiftout bit-banging routines on page 229 of the PICAXE manual and having no success. I searched the forum and found this old thread from 2007 in the archive: Shiftout Error in samples directory code When I compared the code to the shiftin_out.bas code (in the...

    20M2 support spiin/shiftin, spiout/shiftout

    I am confused! Does the 20M2 supports spiin (or shiftin) / spiout (or shiftout) commands? In the manual, the picaxe chip symbols on the left lead me to believe they are "native" commands nut the compiler says the routines in the manual must be used. Which is it? Thanks!

    RTS/CTS flow control - VMUSIC2 Does anyone have an example of program code to handle hardware flow control? I have a VMUSIC2 MP3 module. I currently have it connected to a Basic Stamp using the serin/serout instructions and RTS/CTS pins and it works fine. I receive all the data sent from the...

    IRIN ignoring certain codes?

    I have an old SONY camcorder remote (RMT-811) that I am trying to use with a Panasonic PNA4601M IR receiver using the IRIN instruction. All of the buttons work except four which, when tested using a Basic Stamp, returned values of 42,32,43 and 44. The four buttons are enclosed in the "memory"...

    Interpreter or compiler?

    I know the PICAXE uses a bootstrap program to load programs from the program editor but I am unclear as to what happens next. Does the program editor generate assembler instructions that are directly executed by the PIC or is the code in some other format where each instruction gets...

    hserout on 08M2 - conflicts?

    I have a DS1307 and serial LCD display running on a 20M2. I want to leave the LCD set to 9600 baud so I left the chip running at 4MHz and setup the hserout to run at 9600 for the LCD. This works perfectly. I want to try swapping a 08M2 for the 20M2 but I noticed that pin C.0 is used for both...

    Display HEX values in terminal window

    Forgive me if this has been done before - I am new to the PICAXE. I wanted to display values in HEX and did not find a solution so I wrote this code to convert and display using sertxd. If anyone has an alternative, please share. Thanks #picaxe 20m2 #no_data #com 4 #terminal 4800 Symbol...
