Yes I tried some of that "working code" I don't know where it works but it sure doesn't work on the editor!

Glad to see the Picaxe Editor still runs on the new windows 11 update! 😎

I'm looking for a "pan tilt" for my Rover, something sturdy and weatherproof but not costing an arm and a leg.

Tell me about it! Especially since I retired a year ago.

Thanks to all that helped with the software! Three (RC) channel 60 amp brushed motor controller for less than 100 bucks!

.1uf cap Yes and yes. Same micro, same power supply and same download jack. The only difference was, when the micro got moved to the proto board, the capacitor was still on the breadboard!

A capacitor across the power supply successfully fixed the problem 😃 Thanks so much to everybody who joined in to debug this problem.

The 0.1 UF caps are still on my breadboard! This very same chip loaded this program perfectly on the breadboard before I installed it on the proto board.

Yes Tried to download the program to another pickaxe on a starter board and it loaded just fine. I still must add the cap. And try that Then it's time to switch chips.

A few?

Yes Didn't realize they were absolutely necessary. Between positive and ground right at the chip correct?

As you can see I sodered in my faithful download adapter for my breadboard! Still showing the same error.

It's only five wires what could possibly go wrong??

Examined all solder joints under magnification and ohmed out all the leads. Edit: also checked to be sure we had 5 volts at the chip and that both grounds were connected

Head banging on keyboard is softer 😜

Okay here's my results so far. Attempted a download with the VOM attached to the power supply. Voltage remain steady at 5.0v Did a hard reset. This time the error said number 128 Did another hard reset. This time the error said number 255!
