I am using the propeller to controll a robot for a competition. I have downloaded the PS2_Controller_Serial_Demo object and·I have the·PS2 controller·comunicating with the propeller. I am now stuck because I dont know how to take binary digits·I have displayed into the variables that·I have declared. Please help. The top file is robot.spin.

Thanks,
Ace227

    Is your issue that the PS2.get_RightY type functions return longs and you want to assign their least significant byte to your byte sized variables?

    My issue is with assigning the buttons on the PS2 controller to the variables that i have listed.

    Assuming the comments are correct.
    data1 := PS2.get_Data1
    DPAD_LEFT := data1 & %10000000
    DPAD_DOWN := data1 & %01000000
    etc
    data2 := PS2.get_Data2
    KEY_L2 := data2 & %00000001

    Thanks but actually the get_Data1 controlls all the buttons on the controller but I have the idea now.
