Re: digital inputs lag 0.5-1.0 second before registering change

Sometimes this happens because you are writing too much data to the serial port. If you write faster than your terminal emulator can print out on your screen, it will appear to lag behind. I've been thrown by this a few times - the solution is to either print less data or use a better terminal.
