Hi
I am doing a project on "distance measuring" using ultrasonic sensor with the help of 8051 development board. Present i am just executing in "proteus". Can anybody explain me why there is a delay(0) in get_range function. What is the job of this delay. hELP ME OUT


unsigned int get_range(void)
{
int range=0;
unsigned int s , timerval;
send_pulse();
//delay(40); // generate a delay of 40 Milli seconds=40000 micro
while(echo)
{

}
while(!echo)
{

}
delay(8); // generate a delay of 10 Milli seconds=40000 micro
timerval = TH0;
timerval = (timerval << 8) | TL0;
lcd_cmd(0x81); //
delay(2);
lcd_data_string("range finder:");
lcd_cmd(0xc0); // force cursor to beginning of 2nd line
lcd_data_string("Distance:");
lcd_data_string(0xc9);
if(timerval<35000) //actually you need to use 38000 but the sensor may not work at higher levels
{
range=timerval/59;
s=range/100;
range=range%100;
/*if(s!=0)
//{
lcd_number(s);*/
lcd_data(s+48);
//}
/*else
{
//lcd_cmd(0x06);*/
s=range/10;
range=range%10;
lcd_data(s+48);
lcd_data(range+48);
lcd_data_string("cm");
//led = 0; //}
}
else
{
/*range=0; // indicates that there is no obstacle in front of the sensor
//lcd_cmd(0x06);*/
lcd_data(48);
lcd_data_string("cm");
}
//lcd_data_string("cm");
return range;
}

As the pulse is sent, some part of it will be detected by the receiver side.
This delay ensures you are seeing a reflected signal, not the transmit burst.

Hai co-administrator,
i just want to know why can not we control the delay by "Echo" pin.

i got the output without delay in proteus.
i did added extra while loop for checking "echo" pin of SENSOR. I am confused now which one is correct way to do this job.
please explain me.
while(echo)
{

}
while(!echo)
{

}
while(echo)
{
led = 1;
}
//delay(8); // generate a delay of 10 Milli seconds=40000 micro
please explain it
thank you in advance

I'm not sure what you are asking.
After you send the pulse, you need a "dead time" when the echo is ignored.
That means a fixed delay.
You will need to post the full code (zipped) and your Proteus simulation
for me to help more.

yeah please find the below attachments
My question is how much delay is we required...?
i understood the code only problem is with the delay please explain it.
thank you,

Hi Keil says..
"smartbin.c was not found"

It seems to be missing from Proteus as well.
