This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

I don't have any idea how, electrically, the sensors work. If they
are just switches pulling the IOLine to ground, is there a pull-up
resistor? If not, use OOPic.PullUp = cvTrue which works on IOLines
8..15 when they are used as inputs.

So, break the problem into two pieces: test the switches and display
the results on an LED and test the motor code without the switches
being evaluated.
