run a macro via switch input, rather than button click

C

I presently have a macro that is run via clicking a form button. I need to
automate the process by replacing someone having to manually click the button
with an input from a photo eye switch, or proximity switch. My initial
thought is for Access to constantly monitor for a 0 or 1, or On or Off coming
from the switch, then respond accordingly by running the macro? Has anyone
done something similar? Any suggestions for how I can manipulate Access to
accomplish this automation?

Thank you.

Can you capture the switch signal?, if so, have that signal run access and
the macro needed, and close access, basically the switch controls access ,
not the other way around,
