Oh my God, I love my x2’s So my (2) 40x2’s and a 28x2 showed up the other day… All I can say is don’t even consider buying the old parts anymore. I love each and every new feature.
What is your favorite new feature of the X2 that was either impossible or difficult on the old X1 parts? I saw a ton of pins now have ADC capabilities, I like that.
Specific feature questions: - Does anyone know if interrupts have been modified to include ORing? - Have mathematic operations changed at all, use of parenthesis? IE, can I do (x+5)*3 - Is there a new X2 program editor?
I know that there is not a new editor, but a new version. And I know that the new version has a converter-function from old to new - which should give a lot of insigt.
A good (and free & here & now)-option for anyone interested is simply to download the latest editor, and take an old program and convert it. All sorts of info becomes available to you
Just received my 28X2’s and Axe020 project boards but have a quick question.
The boards have an oscillator built into the board for the earlier picaxe 28’s - do I need to detach aas from what I can read, the 28X2 has onboard oscillator running at 8Mhz, with the code suitably changed, while the onboard oscillator is 4Mhz
Just remember that higher Just remember that higher frequency means more power consumption ;-). I do agree that the new picaxes look attractive though!
