School Project problems programing Chip

Archiver

I'm working on a school project that is due on 12-10-02. I hope
someone out there can help me before this date but if not please
respond regardless. I'm using the BASIC Stamp 2 circut board. I'm
using the program BASIC Stamp editor v1.33. I have two servo motors
and a bumper switch. I have left servo on p7 right on p8 and the
bumper switch on p3. All I want it to do is travel forward hit the
swtch then back up 2 sec then turn 180 degrees(that I'll have to play
with for the timing) and continue forward until it hits the switch
again. Very simple but I'm new to this and all I have to go by is a
print off of someone elses program. I have very little if any
understanding of how to do this. If anyone is willing to help me
with this problem please help. If at all possable e-mail me at
Jkon20@a... (Subject: school project) so that I don't delete
thinking it's junk mail. Thanks

This is what I have so far.

'{$PORT COM1}

servo_left con 8
servo_right con 7
bumswitch var in3
counter var word

check_bumswitch:
if bumswitch = 0 then back

drive_servo:
pulsout servo_left,650
pulsout servo_right,850
next
goto check_bumswitch

back:
for counter = 2
pulsout servo_left,850
pulsout servo_right,650
next
goto left

left:
for counter = 3
pulsout servo_left,850
pulsout servo_left,850
next
goto drive_servo

Give this a shot. Your biggest problem was that the FOR loops were
constructed wrong.

'{$STAMP BS2}
servo_left con 8
servo_right con 7
bumswitch var in3
counter var word

check_bumswitch:
if bumswitch = 0 then back

drive_servo:
pulsout servo_left,650
pulsout servo_right,850
goto check_bumswitch

back:
for counter = 0 to 10 'change 10 to adjust for time
pulsout servo_left,850
pulsout servo_right,650
next

left:
for counter = 0 to 5 'change 5 to adjust for time
pulsout servo_left,850
pulsout servo_left,850
next
goto drive_servo


Enjoy! It's fun.
