Examples
Sample program using the EBM011 - Hall Effect sensor
Reads the sensor and displays output on LED D7.
EBM011 Example
Macro reference
ReadState
|
ReadState |
| Get the current collision state. The 'Polarity' property will affect whether a collision is represented by a high or low state. | |
 - BYTE
|
Return |
SetTarget
|
|
SetTarget |
| Set the object that you want to test for collision with. If this is not called, or is called with handle = 0, collisions will be tested against every panel object that has 'Solid' status. NB) Specifying an object will save CPU power!! | |
 - HANDLE
|
Target |
| The object to test for collision with. | |
 - VOID
|
Return |
WaitUntilHigh
|
|
WaitUntilHigh |
| Pause the program until the detector goes high. 'Polarity' will affect whether high value represents a collision or separation. NB) In simulation, only use this macro if testing for collision with animated or timer driven objects!! | |
| - VOID
|
Return |
WaitUntilLow
|
|
WaitUntilLow |
| Pause the program until the detector goes low. 'Polarity' will affect whether low value represents a collision or separation. NB) In simulation, only use this macro if testing for collision with animated or timer driven objects!! | |
| - VOID
|
Return |

Properties |
|
Connections |
|
Pin |
| The chip pin that will receive the switch status. | |
|
Polarity |
| Select the pin state that will indicate that an object has been detected. | |
|
|
Simulation |
|
Magnet Object |
| Select an object from the panel to act as the magnet that triggers the reed switch. | |
|
Range |
| Distance within which the switch is activated. NB) This is measured between the centre of the proximity switch and the centre of the target object. | |
|
Timer Interval (ms) |
| Time in milliseconds between testing for proximity. Small time = Greater CPU load Large time = More like to miss activation if it is very brief. | |
