I need help with timing loops

Archiver

Hi:

I'm new to stamps. I'm using some infrared sensors connected to my
stamp to control a bank of led lights. I need to keep track of time
between sensors being tripped while the program is still performing
logic to control the lights. Can anyone help me with this? Thank
you.

Hi Jeff, I'll take a stab at it, need some details.
Maybe state mashine approach would do , depending on what you are
trying to accomplish.

Real time triggers or just relative values you could convert to real
time later? Either case, what are min max values expected?

Are you also looking for indication of sequence of triggers,
Is this an ongoing process or just one series of events?

What logic? On and off?
