count will not simulate

[Tinker123]

I am using a 08M picaxe, trying to simulate the count command using a mouse click on an input pin for the count input. It does not simulate. Tried using other chips but no luck. Any help would be appriciated.

main:

count 1,5000, w2

sertxd (#w2)

goto main

Hi and welcome to the Picaxe Forum.

Count is mostly used with very short pulses and those would be very difficult to simulate by clicking on a pin. Instead, use the "Generic" box on the simulator. You can type in that box the value you want count to return.


EDIT: Oops, ecletic was way faster and the discussion he links to is more helpful...
