Re: Cypress I/O Board Not Working
Did you use the install disk that came in the Cypress package?

It should not be installed.
That's the biggest problem teams seem to have run into with this.

The second is to verify that the correct FRC firmware has been properly installed.
If you push the small black button on the Cypress board, then the second LED should light up red (indicating Version 2 of the firmware).
