I want to get on with this project at the weekend :(
Where could I order a programer and what I need to program a 40 pin pic tonight ? for the weekend

--- End quote ---

I got one sitting on my desk you can borrow. PM me your address ill post it to you (hopefully in time for the weekend).

Cheers
Stot

j45on:
Thank you for the offer Stot :nrocks: and the PM much appreciated :thumbup:
Had I not ordered one last night I would take you up on your generous offer.

EDIT: post has arrived :ddb:

Stot:
Yep thats the fella. I could only get mine to work in XP, anything above that doesn't allow direct access to the serial port. I may have even had to tweak XP to allow it. :scratch:

Cheers
Stot

j45on:
Cheers for the heads up Stot
I could not get it to work at first using an extension cable I use for my vinyl plotter
But when plugged in directly to the back of the pc worked fine
I could not believe how easy it was :ddb:
plugged it in and started ICPROG it auto detected the programer and chip I then selected the hex file and off it went job done first try :ddb:

I cant wait to test it with the stepper motor tomorrow :zap:

j45on:
Tested it with a stepper motor and driver today and it worked a treat :ddb:

Just waiting for some standoff's to arrive so I can finish the case and must remember to order some plugs and sockets
And machine the stepper mount :hammer:
I'm also wondering if I should mount the driver in the case as well
it will fit but may get to hot

s=1&hl=en_US

I originally ordered two displays a blue and a green one I shall be sticking with the blue one (looks cool and matches my lathe) but noticed the green one is very dimly lit and would probably need the 82R resistor changing for a different value ?
Just incase someone is building one with a green lcd :thumbup:
