Macro reference

Fc9-comp-macro.png ReadState
Get the current collision state. The 'Polarity' property will affect whether a collision is represented by a high or low state. 
Fc9-u8-icon.png - BYTE Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png 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!! 
Fc9-h32-icon.png - HANDLE Target
The object to test for collision with. 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png 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!! 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return


Fc9-comp-macro.png 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!! 
Fc9-void-icon.png - VOID Return



Property reference

Fc9-prop-icon.png Properties
Fc9-conn-icon.png Connections
Fc9-type-5-icon.png Pin
The chip pin that will receive the switch status. 
Fc9-type-16-icon.png Polarity
Select the pin state that will indicate that an object has been detected. 
Fc9-conn-icon.png Simulation
Fc9-type-17-icon.png Magnet Object
Select an object from the panel to act as the magnet that triggers the reed switch. 
Fc9-type-15-icon.png 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. 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png 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.
