' Name        : VUX3.pbp
' Compiler    : PICBASIC PRO Compiler 2.6
' Assembler   : PM or MPASM
' Target PIC  : PIC16F627A or similar 18-pin type compatible with LAB-X3 board
' Hardware    : LAB-X3 Experimenter Board
' Oscillator  : 4MHz external crystal
' Keywords    : POT, PWM
' Description : PICBASIC PRO program to display pot on 2 segment bargraph.
' The last LED in the graph dims or brightens with changes in the pot.
'

potval   Var Byte  ' Pot result variable
i        Var Byte  ' For-loop variable
position Var Byte  ' LED position variable
bright   Var Byte  ' Brightness variable

mainloop:
   Pot PORTB.0, 127, potval
        
   position = potval / 127 ' Position of last lit LED
   bright = (potval // 127) * 2    ' Brightness of last lit LED

   For i = 0 To 1          ' Set each LED
     If i < position Then
        High i + 4      ' Turn on if lower than last lit LED 
     Else
        Low i + 4       ' Turn off if higher than last lit
     Endif
   Next i
   PWM position + 4, bright, 5     ' Dim the last LED
   Goto mainloop                ' Do it forever

   End
