With the CodeDesigner options set, we are ready to write our first program.

First Program

Start CodeDesigner and enter the following code for the PicBasic compiler.
‘First PicBasic program to wink two LEDs connected to port b.
loop: high 0 ‘Turn on LED connected to pin rb0
low 1 ‘Turn off LED connected to pin rb1
pause 500 ‘Delay for .5 second
low 0 ‘Turn off LED connected to pin rb0
high 1 ‘Turn on LED connected to pin rb1
pause 500 ‘Delay for .5 second
goto loop ‘Go back to loop and blink & wink LEDs forever
end

The next program is identical in function (not code) to the PicBasic program
above. Start CodeDesigner and enter the following code (see Fig. 4.11):

‘Wink program
‘Blinks and winks two LEDs connected to port b
