Hello,
I'm using an 08M to control the transmit line of a radio and inject an audio tune. This works according to plan and is not a problem. However, I don't want it to start immediately, so have set a 600s gap after power on before the main program runs.
initial:
for b0 = 1 to 10
wait 60
next
main_program:
etc
etc
(I didn't want to use the sleep command due to the timing variations on it.)
Before adding the the initial wait period, everything was fine and I could blank and/or re-program the 08 at any time. But when the initial period is included in the program, I can't reprogram it unless I switch it off first for about 15 minutes. It is almost as if the long wait period causes a lock up. Is this normal or expected. Any suggestions please?
