Re: Cypress Help

"FirstTouch3 version 1.14" is the hardware revision and that version is okay.
The accelerometer is only usable in the Driver Station IO Enhanced mode.
The black Cypress button also only shows up as button 1 under Enhanced mode.

It sounds like you have some functionality then.

In the programmer look under Help ->About PSoC Programmer
The version should be 3.12.0.827

Is the green "light" on the I/O tab on?
In Compatibility Mode do you see the Analog Inputs vibrating slightly around 2.2?
In Enhanced Mode they should move a little bit as the accelerometer readings change.
You should also see the Analog Inputs thrashing about if you just touch your finger to the two pins closest to the edge of the Cypress board in either of the two rows of pins on the back.
