For example, if -**value** is **HIGH**, **pulseIn()** waits for the pin to go -**HIGH**, starts timing, then waits for the pin to go **LOW** and -stops timing. Returns the length of the pulse in microseconds. -Gives up and returns 0 if no pulse starts within a specified time -out. - - - -The timing of this function has been determined empirically and -will probably show errors in longer pulses.
