Question about Propeller Manual

mynet43

I'm using the waitpeq and waitpne commands.

On page 327 of my old manual it gives examples that don't look right:

waitpeq(%100000, 5, 0) ' Wait for Pin 5 to go high
waitpeq(%000000, 5, 0) ' Wait for Pin 5 to go low

These don't look right.

Shouldn't they be:

waitpeq(%100000, %100000, 0) ' Wait for Pin 5 to go high
waitpeq(%000000, %100000, 0) ' Wait for Pin 5 to go low

Are these typos, or am I missing something?

Thank you for the help.

Jim

You're correct.

Usually I do:

waitpne( 0, |<5, 0) ' Wait for pin 5 to go high
waitpeq( 0, |<5, 0) ' Wait for pin 5 to go low

That way I have less risk in getting the position of the bit wrong somewhere.

Thanks Mike,

I thought that was right, but I've been wrong before.

I like the |<5 too, I was just trying to make it look like the other examples.

Thanks again,

Jim
