If you write pulsein 1, length, you measure the duration of a high pulse.

If you write pulsin 0, length it gives you the duration of the low pulse.

Take a look at this command in the online Help section of the Basic Editor.

I have an IR module that outputs a square qave that corresponds to a
button on the remmote.

I need to get the length of the pulses and am kinda doing that with
the PULSIN command

the square wave produced by the filtering and other circuits in the
ir module sorta looks like this _

__---_--_

the lengh of the pulse and the length of of time between the pulses
need to be calculated

So far I am able to get the length of the high pulses (see my source
code below)

### I still need to find the time between the high pulses. ###

With this information I can create a signature of the button on the
remote and use that button to activate a servo.

Thanks for any help.

Note you can use 'RCTime' to measure how long
things are in a certain state. You lose the
amount of time it takes the BS2 to interpret
the RCTime command, of course.
