I have an app that sends an sms to get status from a device.
It works great when the text comes back from the device.
But, if the device is off or doesn't respond, I would like it to time out.
I cannot find a way to do that.
The LOOP seems to lock down and nothing else operates while the LOOP is in a loop.
I have tried simple automated procedures, using the clock, etc.
Nothing has worked. Is there a way to check for a new incoming message without a LOOP?
nNummmessages is int = SMSNbMessage(smsMemory)
rslt is boolean = SMSSend()
IF rslt = True THEN
LOOP
x = SMSNbMessage(smsMemory)
IF x <> nNummmessages THEN BREAK
END
END
Thanks

Hi Jim,
one way of doing that is to add a test on elapsed time inside your loop
and do a break if more than x seconds has elapsed
Another way is to use a timer instead of a loop to check every x 1/100
of a second if a new sms arrived and to count the number of times you
enter the timer. If N times is reached to stop the timer
Best regards

Fabrice,
Thanks, I tried option 2 and it is working.
I finally got my mind wrapped around these timers (automated procedures).
I had to have all my code in there, not back in the main thread.
Thanks again!
