    Hi, Darrel

    At school, I just learnt to carefully read the Problem terms :

    sampling every 100ms
    The unit is based on a 16F877a running at 4mhz (I can run it faster if I have to) It also controls the air-conditioning & thermo fans in a climate control kind of way, aswell as having a 20x4 display that gives me info on engine stats and temperatures.
    I do know forumers are not so clear in what they look for ... but I do whith what I have under the eyes ...

    Regards

    Alain

    Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

    IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
    certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

    Darrel,

    From your advice I guess my quickest easiest way of making this work is with pulsein (seeings I have very little interrupt knowledge yet)

    My reference to 21kph was if I use COUNT to count pulses over a 100ms period.

    I will try this in the next few days, with a pulsein timeout period of about 200ms (to prevent all the other functions from slowing down too much.)

    I still haven't had enough time to go over what everyone has posted. But rest-assured it is appreciated.


    Thanks!
