newbie needs help!!!!

[mister_e]

must be more like this

CMCON=7 ;disable internal voltage comparator

pir VAR GPIO.5 ;define GPIO.5 pin as pir
cam VAR GPIO.4 ;define GPIO.4 pin as cam
loop100times  VAR BYTE ;define variable for big delay loop



loop:
               loop100times=100  
               if pir then ;mean if pir=high
                    cam=1 ; do the same thing as HIGH cam
                    pause 1000 ; pause 1 sec as request
                    cam=0 ;same as LOW cam

                    ; now do the big delay
                    while loop !=0                
                          pause 1800
                          loop100times=loop100times-1
                    wend
               endif 
               goto loop

if i well understand what your project do is waiting for a high state on pir pin then send 0 level to cam pin 1 sec after send high level to cam pin during 180 sec (3 minutes) right??? but i think something is missing!!! let me know the exact thing you want to do...

As i read you're a newbie so take care of MCLR (pin 4) is pulled up with resistor(4.7K-10K) to 5 volt supply.

it's suppose to work well now.
