SLEEP Example

Connect an LED and 470 Ω resistor as shown below for the demo program.

NOTE: This is written for the BS2 and will run on any BASIC Stamp module. Modify the $STAMP directive (as required) before downloading to the BS1, BS2e, BS2sx, BS2p, BS2pe, or BS2px.

' SLEEP.BS2
' This program lights an LED and then goes to sleep. Connect an LED to pin
' 0 as shown in the description of SLEEP in the manual and run the program.
' The LED will turn on, then the BASIC Stamp will go to sleep. During sleep,
' the LED will remain on, but will blink at intervals of approximately 2.3
' seconds due to the watchdog timeout and reset.

' {$STAMP BS2}


Setup:
  LOW 0                                 ' turn LED on

Snooze:
  SLEEP 10                              ' sleep for approximately 10 seconds
