Hi,

Thanks for the info. Right now I am using 16000 as a threshold, and it seems to be working well. I have a pickit2, maybe I'll try that. I also have a usb to serial in both 3v and 5v versions. I've been looking at the Microchip application notes concerning touch applications and ran across what you are talking about concerning the threshold value for each key. Maybe once I get into the debugging, I can determine if I will need to do more than a fixed threshold. Thanks again!
