Dial switch diemna... need more ANalog ports

[LinkMTech]

You can configure your own "switching" pot with a 7 position switch and resistors then use only 1 A/D port.

The values selected were not calculated for anything special just picked something that would probably give a decent spread for a 10bit A/D setting. Then using the SELECT CASE, set the values to the level "between" each setting.
Suppose position 1 value is 170 and position 2 is 327 then make your 1st CASE setting to 248, middle of the two values, and continue from there for the whole range.

Sample code:

check_switch:     
    ADCIN #, adval    
    SELECT CASE adval
        CASE IS < xxx: do this or that   ' Lowest value
        ......
        CASE IS < xxx: do this or that   ' Highest value   
    END SELECT    
RETURN

I just made this a couple of months ago and works as needed!

thats agood idea, I used a similar switch arrangment but I will drop my if then statement and use Select case, I dod not know it was in picbasic, I used it in C++ a long time ago.
thanks
