Hi guys, I wondered if anyone could help me.
I've written some code for bidirectional serial communications using a standard picaxe 18. Ive managed to get around the serin wait forever problem so my program does useful stuff while it waits for a valid bayte on its serial input. That all works perfectly fine on the standard picaxe 18 (Ive tried it one about three different chips).
Ive just opened up a new tube of picaxe 18A parts (set to 4MHz) and put exactly the same program onto one of those and it dosent work at all. chips okay, wiring & PSU are okay the only difference is the picaxe part number. Does anybody know why there might be a difference between the 18 and the 18A chips?
