pic to picaxe communication

I have a project that was originally designed using two picaxe chips. The picaxe 08M communicated with a picaxe 28X1 using serout from the 08M and serin for the 28X1. I am trying to substitute a 12F683 for the 08M. However, I can't seem to get it communicating. I assumed I could use the serout command within PicBasic Pro for the 12F683. Both chips are running at the same speed and using the same baud rate.

Has anyone ever done this?

Hi,

I translated a twin Picaxe 08 to 2 x 683, but without serial comms. no big headache ...

Except reading carefully the Picaxe manual : timing of PbP and Picaxe sometimes is different ... an there's no DEFINE OSC XX in the Picaxe !!!

so you must correct yourself those little differences ...
