We scoped the output from the arduino and getting great pulses.

Very frustrated. Have no idea what to do next.
My team had just one led come on whenever the code wasn't working correctly. So make sure you are using working code. Check that you are compiling for the right type of ardunio. Make sure the pins are in the right places. Try pressing the reset button on the ardunio, it should change the brightness and color of one LED if it is not working. If it is it should restart the program.
