' Name        : T1G_1934X.pbp
' Compiler    : PICBASIC PRO Compiler 2.6
' Assembler   : MPASM
' Target PIC  : 40-pin 16F1934 or similar
' Hardware    : LAB-X1 Experimenter Board
' Oscillator  : 4MHz external crystal
' Keywords    : LCDOUT
' Description : PICBASIC PRO program to demonstrate using Timer1 gate 
' in single-pulse mode to capture single pulse event times.
'

' Port B4 connects to port B5 (Timer1 gate), and provides pulse to
' measure by setting B4 high, pausing, then to setting B4 low. Connect
' B4 to B5 with a jumper or resistor.
