I've use the Ping with SX/B; in a project where I needed to read distance with one-inch resolution I used this function:

[code]
FUNC GET_INCHES
  HIGH PingIO
  PAUSEUS 10
  LOW PingIO
  PAUSEUS 5
  INPUT PingIO
  tmpB1 = 0
  \ JNB PingIO, $
  DO
    INC tmpB1
    PAUSEUS 73.746
  LOOP UNTIL PingIO = 0
  RETURN tmpB1
  ENDFUNC
[/code]

This takes advantage the the ability to use fractional values with PAUSEUS (works for PAUSE, too).
