So we start input buttons, and at the 7 button it blinks red. green,red telling us we are done. But we only got 7 inputs in?? Also when we hook up the usb chicklet to the OI and plug the RC into it for testing. The printf( reads that two buttons are always on and evenutally it gives us a code error and the entire thing freezes. Can anyone help? I would really like to be able to use this thing lol

Ok, In mode 2 the LED should only blink green 4 times not 12. Ensure that you are using a Microsoft brand X-box 360 controller. You do not need to use printfs to verify that the Chicklets data is what you expect. You should be using the dashboard for this. A code error on the R/C could occur for many reasons but can only be caused by your code and not the Chicklet. Your code may be in an infinate loop due to some event that has occured or you may have the wrong processor selected in mplab. First, I would verify that the Chicklet has been calibrated properly using dash board. Once that has been done, find the cause of your code error.
