Can the propeller program the PICaxe?

    I can't remember if the PICAXE loading code was ever released,
    but somehow I doubt it. Since it is serial, you could monitor
    the communication. (RS232) and come up with a solution.

    I've interconnected the Propeller and PICAXE myself, and it
    works well. Just don't forget to use a resistor to protect the
    Propeller from the 5v from the PICAXE.

    The PICAXE uses a tokenised object code and neither that nor its download protocol are in the public domain. Many of the PICAXE range can run off 3.3V making interfacing with Propeller and others smooth sailing.

    It would be best to direct specific PICAXE questions to the PICAXE forum as these are not Parallax products.

    Okay--I apologize for speaking the "p" word (not propeller, lol) in this forum. I will be sure not to do it again. smile.gif

    How 'bout programming the BSII?


    Thanks.

    Hi Vaati , yes it can be done. Here's a link to Tracy Allen's site (excellent site with lots of info) showing how one Stamp can program another. The same can be done·using a Prop.

    Okay, that page is excellent and all, but I am not a master of converting .bs2 to .spin--One thing that makes it a tad more difficult is that I have HWB, not the module. But with a properly configured "simple serial connection" that wasn't so fun and simple after all, I should be able to make it work.

    Right?


    Thanks.

    Please don't edit your post like this as it confuses people who cannot see how the answers given relate in anyway to the question asked.

    Vaati , connection to the Stamps Sin and Sout pins are not enough you also need a third wire the to the Stamps Atn pin. Is this accessible on the Home Work Board.

    The programming starts with a reset sequence where the timing is critical , Atn is part of the reset
