<p class="PlainText">Make the specified pin an output.

<ul>
<li value="1"><b><i>Pin</i></b> is a variable/constant/expression* (0 - 15) that specifies
which I/O pin to set to output mode</li>

<p class="PlainText">*<img src="../../graphics/bs1note.gif" style="vertical-align: super;" /> Note: expressions are not allowed as arguments on the BS1. The range
of the <i>Pin</i> argument on the BS1 is 07.</p>

<h2>Explanation</h2>
<p class="PlainText">There are several ways to make a pin an output. Commands that rely on
output pins, like <span class="keyword_in_text">PULSOUT</span> and <span class="keyword_in_text">SEROUT</span>, automatically change the
specified pin to output. Writing 1s to particular bits of the variable DIRS
makes the corresponding pins outputs. And then theres the <span class="keyword_in_text">OUTPUT</span>command.</p>
<p class="PlainText">When a pin is an output, your program can change its state by writing to
the corresponding bit in the OUTS variable (PINS on the BS1). For
example:
</p>
<p>
<img src="../../graphics/bs1_inline.gif" border="0">
</img>
</p><pre class="BScode" xml:space="preserve">
OUTPUT 4
PIN4 = 1
</pre>
<p>
<img src="../../graphics/bs2all_inline.gif" border="0">
</img>
</p><pre class="BScode" xml:space="preserve">
OUTPUT 4
OUT4 = 1
</pre>
<p class="PlainText">When your program changes a pin from input to output, whatever state happens to be in the corresponding bit of OUTS (PINS on the BS1) sets the initial state of the pin. To simultaneously make a pin an output and set its state use the <span class="keyword_in_text">HIGH</span> and <span class="keyword_in_text">LOW</span> commands.</p>
