I've looked at the docs, but·I can't find the voltage range for the SX28AC. Help, please?

    And DON'T go over 5.5 (you shouldn't go over 5.0) -- unless you want to destroy your SX. Ask me how I know....

    Experience, right? Thanks a bunch! I'm woking on a project that will blink some LEDs like a heartbeat. Could someone please post a piece of SX/B code that would blink and LED every second? I don't want somebody to solve a problem, just give an example.

    bugg,
    Take a look at the pause command in the SXB help file.
    I have not used SXB yet, but I think this will work. The led will come on for 200 mS, turn off for 1 second and repeat.
    Main:
  ' main code here
'led hard wired to 5v via 470 ohms


    high led 'led off
pause 1000 'wait one second
low led  'led on
pause 200 'wait 200 ms


      GOTO Main

    Did it "explode" or just produce a nice bubble in the case material?

    Yes, Bugg -- for the love of Pete, already -- have a look at the docs before you post a question. The example code attached to HIGH and LOW in the help file is an LED blinker. Amazing what we'll think of (documentation), isn't it?

    And while we're at it ...·stop changing thread topics.· You started out with SX voltage, now you're on to blinking LEDs.· You should have started a new thread.

    Hear, hear, Jon ..... do some homework guys before you ask a question! We're all willing to help, but not if you're not part of the solution!
