Triggering Circuit

Archiver

Hi Gang

I have a small dilemma. I'm working on a project that runs a
routine but when the value of a pot changes in the circuit it drops out of
that routine and reads the new value of the pot using RCTIME. What I need
is to create a circuit that creates a trigger so the stamp knows the value
of the pot has changed. After it reads the new value it resets the trigger
and goes back to running the routine with the new value.

Any ideas?

I take it you've already tried using an 'old x' value
to track the previous value of the pot???

If you have, then I'm not sure what good using up
an extra stamp pin would do you. Seems like a lot
of trouble to create a whole circuit for this purpose.
Please advise if you have already tried freeing up
variable space or NEED a hardware solution.
