Dear all,

I have little experience in CCS-C so I apologise for the newbie question!

I have some code that runs an infinite loop (while(true)) and has inside it a further statement, they look a little like this:
Code:
main()
{
 startup inc interrupts and timer1 setup
 print startup output
 while(true)
  {
   if ((input(PIN_B0) == 0) && connected == _OFF)
      {
      Print Debug statement
      CODE
      }
    other code
   }
}

I've monitored "connected" and it never changes, unless instructed to do so, from _OFF.
PIN_B0 sits at 5v(1) indefinitely, unless I drag it low, and so the CODE should not be executed. At powerup I get the startup output and then nothing - which seems ideal. As soon as I hit transmit a character to the device via serial connection the debug and CODE statements are executed, despite PIB_B0 apparently never going to 0 (hardware holds it high).

Have I missed something? Is there any condition where these inputs can change?

I've cured this by repeatedly sampling the pin and averaging, as the HIN232 that feeds the B0 pin seems to be falling low when it should not - possibly a power rail problem.
