I got it to open with wordpad but compiling was a real problem. It would not
compile with MBLAB because a lot of statements were missing operands. For
example bit tests with no second argument. Had to download the TechTools
compiler that he used and it compiled and loaded fine.

Anyone ever attempt to build one of these?

I downloaded and compiled the code but would like to know if it is
reliable
before I go to the trouble to design and make the boards. Considering
all
the parts can be had for under $50 and an AutoAnchor cost over $500 it
looks
pretty attractive.


I've used the proximity devices in several projects, and they work
well. They are available from the usual suspects, Allied, Newark, etc.

I visited the web site...the source code is a dot src file, which I refuse
to open...any one have it in a dot txt format? I've looked at a ton of
de-bounce routines, and have invented a pretty fool-proof one. I'm
always curious how others do it.
