    Help with 18M2

    I have some code (working fine on an 18X) that uses a bit variable to hold a random number between 1 and 7 (using Hippy's "roll dice" code -- it flashes LEDs, one at a time, in random order). I was then able to do this ... high b0 pause 200 low b0 etc. Now the editor squawks when...

    Picaxe switching on a Picaxe

    I have searched around to see if this has been handled and can't seem to find anything. I have an existing axe project that uses 4 magnetic reed switches on 4 axe inputs to determine which of 16 different lighting behaviors occur on a set of 5 LEDs. This is an 18X chip and inputs are through a...

    Picaxe at Art Prize 2009

    Five Picaxe 08M controllers are used in my piece at the Art Prize in Grand Rapids, MI (USA). They control LED lights on the inside of blown glass heads. Thanks to Hippy for his example random number generator code and to Ron Hackett (www.jrhackett.net) for his great little project board, the...

    Virtual terminal characters + thermocouple

    I am using VSM to simulate a MAX6675 into an 08M. I used PH Anderson's code as a starting point and wiring from tutorial 03. It seems to be working, however, I am wondering about how to simulate the thermocouple. I have tried to use a DC generator set at 16mV (this should be around 390C for a...

    Strobe Control

    Hello - I am thinking about a project that would use a Picaxe to control the flash of a small throw away camera strobe. There are quite a few hacks on the net involving these (and ample warnings about how you can really zap yourself on the caps that are in the circuit). See ---...

    New XBee Support ?

    Is Rev-Ed going to support the new XBee ZNet 2.5 (formerly Series 2) modules? Apparently they allow mesh networking. Thanks.

    zigbee net

    Kind of a general question (and I am muddling my way through the Xbee docs) -- Is it possible to hop a message through a Zigbee network back to a "host" or a "master"? I didn't see this addressed in all the discussion of Zigbee distance limits. It would seem that as long as...
