#172752 - To (almost) quote Star Trek:
Responding to: ???'s previous message
This sensor is unfortunately only triggered for around 5-6 milliseconds ...

For a microprocessor, that's almost an eternity.

Even if you don't use interrupts (a recommendation which I second), you might be able to poll it if you arrange the rest of your program accordingly. However, that would only be sensible if there's a rock-hard technical limitation that prohibits the use of interrupts.
