I am having an issue that I can't get a handle on. I am programming PicAxe 18A chips
and was having some success for a few days.
Now I can't get the chips to work. I will be programming the chip and suddenly the chip
will go missing. The editor refuses to recognize that the chip is there. I try a hard reset,
but the chip is just gone. I have had this happen with three chips is the course of an hour.
The chip shows up, I program it a few times and it goes missing. A new chip works for a
few times and then goes dark.
I have checked the programming cable several times and it shows as good.
The power supply is a good H/P regulated unit. I even changed to another supply but the
same thing happened again.
What can I look for?
