Hi I got a new computer with Windows 10. (My fault, I know). The AXE027 cable driver installs fine (shows correctly in device manager) , the editor installs fine, but I cannot select a COM port in the editor settings (drop down is empty). Is there any information if this can even work? Thanks

Hi I am a little bit confused with using the DAC. The manual shows code like 'init: low DAC_PIN ; make the DAC pin an output dacsetup %10100000 ; external DAC, supply voltage main: for b1 = 0 to 31 daclevel b1 ; set DAClevel pause 1000 next b1 goto main very straight forward but I am...

Hi I am a little bit confused how to use the serial port for communication in a project. Since the port is used for downloads of the program, will I always have to disconnect??? I have a LCD device that is controlled with serial communication, but should be "always on". I will there just be...

I am a beginner with Picaxe and was wondering if there was a "starter guide" or "best practices' for beginners working with the Picaxe editor (6.0.8.0). (Besides the picaxe manual 1-3) I could not find anything so here is what I came up with. Maybe it could be helpful for other beginners...

Hi I have some trouble with interupts and ADC setup; (beginner) fvrsetup FVR4096 ; set FVR as 4.096V setint %10000000,%10000000 If I select an 20M2 chip, it complains that it can only do C.0. ... C.5 HW interrupts (but I want to use the internal timer). I can't find any...

Hi (still a beginner) I'd let to set an output LED if a certain condition is true symbol NoCreep = B.6 low NoCreep if condition = true then high NoCreep endif so far so good later in the program I'd like to see if this has been set but if NoCreep =1 then ;blahblah endif give me...

Hi I would like to add up and average the content of a bunch of registers and wonder how this can be done most efficient. (PICAXE 20M2) I started with let w0 = b34+b35+b36+b37+b38+b39+b40+b41 w0=w0/8 only to realize that for some strange reason I am getting a syntax error if I use a...

Hi I would like to do a few ADC conversions, poke the values into memory and then use them for averaging. Unfortunately the @bptinc is not doing what I expect (It does auto increment, but where does the value go?). What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any pointer... b40=0 let bptr = 40 let...

Hi New to the forum, new to PICAXE (but not to programming- started with Z80 and HEX code in 1982 or so). This might be the dumbest question ever but in my first five minutes of programming PICAXE I already hit a roadblock. (And I can't find a solution in the manual or forum): When declaring...
