Error - Unkown symbols -pins

I'm a noob in Logicator and using Picaxe Bots. I'm using Logicator v3 - the shareware version.

When I add a Stop command to a sequence, it returns an error when I download the programme to the bot - "Error - Unkown symbols -pins".

Removing the Stop command, the programme downloads and runs successfully.

Is my approach wrong? Do I even need a stop command? I tried adding it to most of the activities in the BOT120 manual, with the same error.

Any suggestions?

The error is not produced with a blank program (Start > Stop only) for both 20X2 and 18M2. Which PICAXE bot are you talking about anyway?

Can you upload your PIC-Logicator flowsheet (by attaching the .plf file) so that it can be looked at.

Welcome to the forum.

You may have the software in the wrong mode - use the PIC Setup menu to choose the 20X2 chip.

The Bot I'm using is the Picaxe Bot120.
I've attached two files - the original .plf with flashing lights.

The other is the same file with a STOP command.

Maybe I'm missing something pretty basic - but I'm guessing that may be clearly pointed out.

Look forward to your advice.

Both flowcharts download without issue for me with version 3.51 of Logicator. Check which version you have by clicking on the Help -> About menu options.

Er... Don't you mean to post in this thread?

Forget about reinstalling Logicator first - install the .NET Framework links I've given here.
