- You Reply: Hi Guys,
Yes i read through the tutorial. I understand the use of &BI1&, &BO1&, &PI1& and &BO1& for power and data interface to the block. If i need to use and internal variable for a calculation it is used the same as Arduino IDE?
For example:
My variables,
int pin; // I assume this would be &BI1&
long duration; //And internal variable to be left as is?
long rangeincentimeters; //I assume this would be &BO1&
My Code,
void loop()
{
pinmode(&BI1&, OUTPUT);
digitalwrite(&BI1&,LOW);
delaymicroseconds(2);
digitalwrite(&BI1&,HIGH);
delaymicroseconds(5);
digitalwrite(&BI1&,LOW);
pinmode(&BI1&,INPUT);
duration=pulsein(pin,HIGH);
&BO1& = duration/29/2;
Also does simply saving the new block allow it to be opened in Mind+ automatically? Anytricks to allow Mind+
to use the new block.
Regards
Russell
