displaying data from the picaxe from the editor?

[tater1337]

is there a way to display a message from the picaxe to the editor? sorat like sending a status message to the lcd but not as clunky (like basic stamps debug command)

I just want it to be able to read off a variable, or give me a go-nogo status. technicaly the simulator should be able to tell me this, but not when I start reading data from outside the picaxe

I'm not familiar with the BS commands,
but, have a look at
SERTXD

Manual 1, page 66 and

Manual 2, page 175

Yes, the Programming Editor has a Terminal Display which can be launched manually ( PICAXE -> Terminal or F8 ) or by adding "#Terminal 4800" to the source code ( adjust baud rate as appropriate ).

All that's then needed is the SERTXD command to send back to the Programming Editor, for example ...

#Terminal 4800
Do
SerTxd( "b0=", #b0, CR, LF )
Pause 1000
b0 = b0 + 1
Loop
