Re: Wigglyman1 question

Hi Woody
   CALCRAND is exactly as you say, seeding the RAND function from a 16MHz real-time clock in the TCNT reserve word.
   (Grant may want to tweak this response as he wrote CALCRAND) but, as far as i know, TCNT is only documented the Hitachi manual. You may notice that the initialize section of WigglyMan1 is extended beyond the previous 2-line section. These initialization statements are the configs required to start the clock running.

best,
