Two quick questions please on interrupts in Flowcode 5.

1. On the RB0 interrupt the rising or falling edge of that particular pin can be setup in properties but on a "Change in Port B" there are no properties. Is it possible to set this port for the falling edge or is it just a change in the port full stop?

2. On one of the descriptive videos on interrupts it says that the interrupt stays inactive until the macro it is directed to is completed. Is that correct please?

Thanks in advance...

Hi James,
Depending on the microcontroller, it will or will not have an internal interrupt on change register.
If It does then there will be an option to select which edge is used for triggering as properties will be enabled.
E.g an example is 16F(L)18xx range: Unfortunately, there are also thoses who do not, e.g older 16F7(L)xx.
On those devices, properties are greyed out: This means you can't select which edge to trigger on, therefore BOTH edges will be used for triggering.
If that is undesirable, then you must have means within interrupt so detect which edge was used for triggering, so wrong edge can be ignored.

Makes sense - thanks for the speedy response. I am using an ECIO-28 - the Matrix thing for fast prototyping.
