Action

Wait until a bit is set or reset.

 

 

Syntax

BITWAIT x , SET/RESET

 

 

Remarks

 

When using bit variables make sure that they are set/reset by software otherwise your program will stay in a loop.

 

When you use internal registers that can be set/reset by hardware such as PINB.0 this doesn't apply since this state can change as a result from for example a key press.

Example

$regfile = "m48def.dat"                                     ' specify the used micro

$crystal = 8000000                                          ' used crystal frequency

$baud = 19200                                               ' use baud rate

$hwstack = 32                                               ' default use 32 for the hardware stack

$swstack = 10                                               ' default use 10 for the SW stack

$framesize = 40                                             ' default use 40 for the frame space
