I am experiencing a problem programming my PICAXE-18x and would appreciate any Suggestions on potential fixes. Here is the summary:
Configuration:
1) PICAXE programming editor v5.2.2 running on IBM T40 laptop with Windows XP
2) AXE027 PICAXE USB download cable
3) PICAXE-18 Standard Project Board CHI030
4) PICAXE 18X microcontroller
5) 7805ct 5V voltage regulator circut on solderless bread board
With this configuration setup, I am unable to download any program to the PICAXE-18X.
The error I am receiving is the following:
"ERROR- Hardware not found on COM 2"
I have tried two different 18x's as well as two different cables and boards
But the problem still persists. I also tried it on a hp desktop running vista.
Have checked the com ports and they appear to be configured correctly. Have also performed
The "test" under the "serial port" tab on the options window. That also checks out fine.
During the test, when the LED is off, the voltage at the serial-in pin is -0.1 mV.
When the LED is on, the voltage at the serial-in pin is +2.3 V.
I have tried every suggestion given on the Error window but still no luck.
This message occurs regardless of which COM port the PICAXE is using.
