Hmm. It is amazing what you can learn when you read through the
documentation. More than once I have convinced people of my technical
omnipotence simply by reading the manual beforehand. ;-)

Maybe you can enlighten me as to why I should be using the V5 compiler
instead of the V6? Since I had no feedback other than Dan Michaels of
Oricomtech saying something like V5 was better documented and had
better examples, I ended up just using the V6 compiler.

Not sure it can. It assumes that there are two I/O lines, one for the
ping and one for the echo. Not sure if you can use the same line for
both. You would probably have to try it out.
