Hi I need a little bit of help! I would like to make an electronic timing system for swimming using a PC and the BASIC computer language. I would like to start the timing using a touch button and stop it using a touch pad, and communicate with the PC via the parallel port. What sort of functions would I need to look at, and it is possible to time over several channels (since I need the program to time six swimmers in separate lanes)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
