    Hello chris,

    What we like to do is.We have a number, when a input is going high then the number is counting down from ten to nine and a output is going high for 5 seconds when this number is zero and the input will be high then the output stay low only when this number is be higer as zero then the output will be going high.
    now we like to upgrade this number with serin command or something like that.

    i hope you understand now a litle bit what we going to try to do.

    greetings erik

    I deferred response to your original post because I too couldn't understand what you were asking, your clarification still confuses me. You refer to upgrading (which I interpret as modifying) code to use the command serin. Does this mean you already have code? If so please post the code. If not, do you think you could provide a timing diagram or someother pictorial example of what you are trying to accomplish, because its difficult to understand your phrasing of your question. Here is my interpretation of what your describing, can you confirm this or provide an alternate explaination?

    Erik,

    ·· Without your existing code, it would be difficult to tell you the best way to implement this into your existing code.· Please post your existing code.
