    	Low LEDB			        ' PortA.1 then goes LOW
            pause 10000           ' a 10 second gap and then go blinkety blink
    EndLoop:

    BlinkyHalf:
    	Toggle LEDA

    Melanie, I hope you don't mind me using my brain to mod your code. However, as you have it, it is a variation of blinky. More to come ??

    Blinkcounter var byte
    clear

    start:
    High porta.1 'high port
    high porta.0 'on led
    pause 500
    low porta.0 'off led
    pause 500
    let blinkcounter = (blinkcounter + 1)
    if blinkcounter < 6 then start
    low porta.1
    low porta.0
    pause 1000
    goto start 'keep it going

    TrisA = %00000000
    i var byte
    Start:
    PortA.1 = 1
    while PortA.1 = 1
    For i = 0 to 5
    portA.0 = 1
    pause 500
    PortA.0 = 0
    pause 500
    next i
    portA.1 = 0

    Hi..
    Thanks for all
    I test your code and its working fine but because I am new with picbasic what dose this meen
    PortA = %00000000
    TrisA = %00000000
    When I remove this tow lines the code not working,
    Best regard

    PORTA = %00000000 read this as PORTA gets bits 00000000
    This means, write 0 to each bit position of PORTA. Each 0 represents the bits in PORTA from bit 7 to bit 0. You could also write it as
    PORTA = $00 read this as PortA gets Hex 0

    TRISA = %00000000
    This is the tristate register which tells your PIC to allow the values of PORTA to 'drive' the external world circuits. Same as above for the bit position part. If you set any 1 position to 1, that position will only be able to read (INPUT) from the external circuit.

    Clear now? Don't hesitate to ask. See how many responses you got.

    Default A slight modification to Sayzer's code

    I am looking for a way to change the rate of blink (Blinking rate) using Interrupt. I would read a POT using ADC and then change the blink rate, Any idea how I could impliment it in Sayzer's code.

    Thanks.

    p.s. maybe using TMR0

    A question for you first... why do you specify using INTERRUPT?
