#freq 20X2

Do you not need to set this for the 20x2? The manual says 28x/40x parts only. I have a 20x2 @ 16Mhz and Debug does not appear to be communicating.

thx

The manual also states about debug......

Affect of increased clock speed:
When using an 8 or 16MHz clock speed ensure the software has been set with the
correct speed setting to enable successful communication between
microcontroller and PC.

Which I assume means to set the #freq to tell the software what speed the picaxe is running at. This does not work for 20x2

The X2's should automatically drop to the default frequency for DEBUG and return to what they were at previously when finished. No #freq required.

What you could try is a simple debugging test loop to check that works ( does for me ) -

#Picaxe 20X2
SetFreq M64
Do
b0 = b0 +1
Debug
Pause 8000 ' 1 second @ 64MHz
Loop

Then perhaps post your code so we may be able to determine what the issue is.
