quick question 12F683

Thank you Henrik. I need to find another way to detect when the circuit is active.

Just use a simple transistor buffer.
Pullup resistor on I/O-pin, NPN transistor pulling I/O-pin to GND when the 1.2V signal drives a small current into the transitors base.

/Henrik.

Unfortunately the circuit board is already manufactured with a pull down resistor network. The switch that activates the circuit which I'm trying to detect goes to ground when pushed. True, I can use an inverter but it needs to be a very simple hook-up. Attach B+, B-, one wire output and one wire detect. I'll probe around more today to see if there's another way around this. Again thank you Henrik.

Just use the ADC to measure the voltage on the pin and decide in software what is a high and what is a low.
