BAS0800 programmer

[Erik van Gerven]

Hi all,

When using the BAS800 programmer, I should be able to program PIC's directly using the built in assembler (still writing programs in Basic)
Questions:
Say, I have a program 'saved' in a picaxe and the same in a PIC, will the PIC controller act faster?
Do I have to set 'fuses' and such and will the Program Editor guide me through?
Is there some sort of manual to help me out somewhere available?

Thanks in advance,

Erik

From within Programming Editor, Help -> Assembler Datasheets would be a good place to start.

Programs converted and burned into a PICmicro will execute faster.

Note that the Convert to Assembler option is primarly for educational purposes, not a commercial compiler. There are limits to what it can do and some PICAXE programs cannot be converted to assembler.

Some of the more complex commands (eg serial) aren't supported, but the basic ones are.

I found the helpfiles mentioned above. and also the list with supported and unsupported commands...

I'll give it a try

Thanks!
