What I ment was: Can you

What I ment was: Can you write the code that reads an analouge input? If so, just hook up the LDR to it, and read the input. That will be the code you are asking for: It is just an analouge input that you need to read in order to read the LDR :slight_smile:

If you are not sure how to hook it up, this might help: https://www.robotshop.com/letsmakerobots/node/1833

an example with LDR

i made this simple code that works :slight_smile:

#include <sleep.h>
#include <sound.h>
void main()
{
while(1)
{
if (in_c(0)==1) // if have light
{
sound(2000,100); // beep
}
sleep(200);
}
}
