writing a program

[djm902]

i was wondering if somone could write a program for me as i am still learning
how to program and its getting close to the deadline

[livinlowe]

What do you want the program to do?

[JonnyMac]

Of course we're happy to write a program for you, and as Sean indicated, you have to let us know what the program has to do.  Be very specific with inputs, outputs, timing; you cannot give us too much information -- more information is better.

ok im going to be using output 1 and 2
out1 is for a audio chip
out2 is for a 12v solenoid
i would like to trigger 1 and 2 at the same time and hold 2 for five seconds
and then reset to the the the start
im goin to be using the uln2003an chip and powering  the audio chip
and the solenoid with  the prop one controller.
if any of this sounds like it wont let mme know
thanks for the help

Specifically, what kind of "audio chip"?  Is this something you're providing power to, or a trigger to?

[djm902]

it is a cowalacious designs board recorder/ player
and the prop 1 will be providing power and the trigger also

[JonnyMac]

I'm not sure which Cowlacious audio board that you have so this code is compatible with the CAR/P-200 that I have and should work with his other boards.  Connect your normally-open trigger (button) between P6.W and P6.R.  Connect V+ to the + input on the Cowlacious board, GND to the - input on the Cowlacious board, and OUT0 to the trigger input pin of the Cowlacious board.

ok now do i cut and past the entire thing or just the program code?

[JonnyMac]

Just highlight the code with your mouse, press Ctrl+C (copy), then past (Ctrl+V) into your editor.  Be sure to save the file with a appropriate name.

great thanks for all you help i really appreciate it
