Hey all,
I know I must be doing something very simple wrong here - but I can't for
the life of me figure it out. What I'm trying to do: Have a light sensor
pointed at a surface. Pass that value off to a variable (the variable then
contains the "ambient" light level), and then watch when the light sensor
drops about 5 counts below that (when it sees black).
Simplified, here's my code:
int threshold;
task main()
{
SetSensorType(SENSOR_1, SENSOR_TYPE_LIGHT);
OnFwd(OUT_A);
threshold=SENSOR_1;
until(SENSOR_1<threshold-5);
Off(OUT_A);
}
For some reason.. this does nothing, the motor port just stays on. I have
run into this countless times, and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong!
Any suggestions?
Iain
