Simple question regarding OI LED's

[Tom Line]

One of my programmers was playing with the LED's on the OI board, but was curious.

He put the statement Pwm1_red=1; in the default routine, and the Led did not light up red. I was at a loss as to why it didn't work. So, what's up with this?

That should work...

If this is happening every loop, either the light is being turned back off or the light doesn't work.
Make sure that no other code after that points turns the light back off, and try turning on all the other lights.

The OI feedback LEDs share data space with the user display byte. You can't use them both at the same time. If the OI is showing the user byte, none of the LEDs will light.

Aha! That would make sense. It stopped working after we added some code that prints the PMW values of our choice out to the user byte for debug. Thank you!
