We do not have the Cypress board connected, but in the past we could use the I/O screen on the Driver Station without any issues.

We went under Configure on the I/O screen and selected Enhanced and set the pins the way we wanted. 1-13 as Input (pulled high) and 14-16 as Output. We did not change PWM1 or PWM2 Period, nor did we touch Q Enc Index Enable. I assume this enabled the Enhanced IO?

When we try to change the inputs on the I/O screen on the driver station by clicking on the light beside the Digital input it does not change the color like the old I/O setup.

Do you believe it maybe a driver station or user error issue and not necessarily the way I am using it in the code. I am leery of using that & in the "ds = &DriverStation::GetInstance()->GetEnhancedIO();", but that is the only way I could get it to compile. I have no idea if that is the correct code mechanism.
