2. Using Turing Command to send data to parallel port parallelput (x : int) The command sends 1 byte of data to the parallel port at a time. Using 1 byte (8 bits) we can represent 2 8 =256 different states. The 8 bits are sent along the Data pins on the parallel port (Pins 2-9, D0-D7)

16. The Traffic Intersection Project Steps: 1) Wire six LED / resistor pairs on breadboard 2) Attach the wires to your model 3) Write your program 4) Enjoy hours of staring at the lights change

17. Step 1 – Wiring the lights +’ve, Long Lead -’ve, Short Lead

18. Step 2 – The D-Sub Connector 1)Attach your wires to the crimp pins. 2)Be sure to press the clamps down tight on the wire. 3)Push the crimped pin into the D-Sub Connector (it’s a tight fit). 4)Repeat for the other 7 wires.

19. Step 1 – Wiring the lights

21. Test your interface Once you’ve got the wires connected to the parallelport, you can test the interface. Try : parallelput(255) This should turn on all your lights.

25. Making The Turing Program 1 Make a Program Header % % The "trafficIntersection" program % Course Code: ICS 3M1 % Instructor: Your Teacher % Date: April 25, 2007 % Initial Release % % This Program simulates a traffic intersection in graphics. It can also properly drive the actual % intersection by use of a parallel port and binary outputs.

26. Making The Turing Program 2 Create a User Defined Data Type type trafficState: % data type trafficState will store various components of traffic states. record timeWait : int % var for the time in that state binState : int % binary value of that state (more details see pin output state table NSPic : string % var for the state of the NS light EWPic : string % var for the state of the EW light end record

27. Making The Turing Program 3 Create a User Defined Data Type drawfillbox(0, 0, maxx, maxy, 54) % code for background colour % The 6 states are declared as an array of trafficState data type var trafficPattern : array 1.. 6 of trafficState % Below contains the value of each of the states % timeWait: Green light - 5 sec. % Yellow light - 2 sec. % Both red light - 1.25 sec. % binaryStates in decimal: NS green - 1 % NS yellow - 2 % NS red - 4 % EW green - 8 % EW yellow - 16 % EW red - 32

28. Making The Turing Program 4 Note the binary States listed below drawfillbox(0, 0, maxx, maxy, 54) % code for background colour % The 6 states are declared as an array of trafficState data type var trafficPattern : array 1.. 6 of trafficState % Below contains the value of each of the states % timeWait: Green light - 5 sec. % Yellow light - 2 sec. % Both red light - 1.25 sec. % binaryStates in decimal: NS green - 1 % NS yellow - 2 % NS red - 4 % EW green - 8 % EW yellow - 16 % EW red - 32

29. Making The Turing Program 5 Then Define Each Traffic Pattern in this manner… %NS Green EW Red trafficPattern(1).timeWait := 5000 trafficPattern(1).binState := 1 + 32 trafficPattern(1).NSPic := "trafficgreen.bmp" trafficPattern(1).EWPic := "trafficred.bmp“ %NS Yellow EW Red trafficPattern(2).timeWait := 2000 trafficPattern(2).binState := 2 + 32 trafficPattern(2).NSPic := "trafficyellow.bmp" trafficPattern(2).EWPic := "trafficred.bmp“ etc…

Making The Turing Program 6 Create a Procedure % procedure for loading the pictures in the different states procedure drawIntersection (NSFile : string, EWFile : string) Pic.ScreenLoad (NSFile, 250, 250, 0) Pic.ScreenLoad (EWFile, 100, 150, 2) Pic.ScreenLoad (NSFile, 250, 50, 0) Pic.ScreenLoad (EWFile, 400, 150, 2) end drawIntersection

31. Making The Turing Program 7 Finally, cycle through the lights… % Loop to make the cycle continuous for i : 1.. 4 % Loop for each of the traffic states and giving drawIntersection the images to change for j : 1.. 6 drawIntersection (trafficPattern(j).NSPic, trafficPattern(j).EWPic) parallelput (trafficPattern(j).binState) % send info to parallel port delay (trafficPattern(j).timeWait) % delay the amount of milliseconds indicated in traffic state end for
