Sample program using the EBM011 - Hall Effect sensor

Reads the sensor and displays output on LED D7. EBM011 Example

	ReadState
Get the current collision state. The 'Polarity' property will affect whether a collision is represented by a high or low state.
- BYTE	Return

	SetTarget
Set the object that you want to test for collision with. If this is not called, or is called with handle = 0, collisions will be tested against every panel object that has 'Solid' status. NB) Specifying an object will save CPU power!!
- HANDLE	Target
The object to test for collision with.
- VOID	Return

	WaitUntilHigh
Pause the program until the detector goes high. 'Polarity' will affect whether high value represents a collision or separation. NB) In simulation, only use this macro if testing for collision with animated or timer driven objects!!
- VOID	Return

	WaitUntilLow
Pause the program until the detector goes low. 'Polarity' will affect whether low value represents a collision or separation. NB) In simulation, only use this macro if testing for collision with animated or timer driven objects!!
- VOID	Return

	Properties
	Connections
	Pin
The chip pin that will receive the switch status.
	Polarity
Select the pin state that will indicate that an object has been detected.
	Simulation
	Magnet Object
Select an object from the panel to act as the magnet that triggers the reed switch.
	Range
Distance within which the switch is activated. NB) This is measured between the centre of the proximity switch and the centre of the target object.
	Timer Interval (ms)
Time in milliseconds between testing for proximity. Small time = Greater CPU load Large time = More like to miss activation if it is very brief.
