Can i measure 2 secs with pulsin?

Hi,

For pulsin,

You also can play with the internal oscillator ... if your chip, like the 16F88 has a configurable internal osc ...

use the " classic " 4 or 8 Mhz speed, and switch, on the fly, to 31 Khz or 125 Khz ... just changing osccon IRCF bits, when needed ...


note the BUTTON command can be configured to have a 250ms debounce time ( DEFINEs ...) ... 8 x 250 ms make 2 seconds.
which is much, much simpler !!! ( matches Bruce's idea ...)

Acetronics,

i really don't understand very well how it's works BUTTON, but, it will work if I use BUTTON just when PIC is turned on.

By example the following flow,

1. turn on PIC and if button is pressed 2 seconds GOTO X, or

2. turn on PIC and if button is not pressed run normally.

Hi, Lugo

let's suppose your button B is active LOW

DEFINE BUTTON_PAUSE 250

.
.
.

FOR I = 1 to 8 

   Delay = 0                                ' reset check time
   BUTTON B,0,255,0,Delay,1, Incr          ' Check if button pressed for 250 ms , IF yes, increment I and recheck
   GOTO Main                              ' If not jump to main

   Incr:
NEXT I                                    ' If checked 8 times we enter Setup routine

Setup_routine :
.
.
.
.
Main :
.
.

Note there's NO DELAY to enter main routine if button hasn't been pressed ... either test will be left as soon as button is released ...
