Wiring LEDs using I/O module at driver station

[mbone206]

I need to look into using the I/O module for wiring LED feed back at driver station. My team is presently looking for the module (last years kit?), hopefully there will be paperwork with it. In the meantime, I would like to look into how to do this. I Found ‘how to configure I/O module’ but no data sheet. Does anyone have the data sheet? Do you know if we have to use resistors to pull up/down current for LEDs? How much current sources/sinks the
digital I/O?

thanx
Mark

Cypress I/O Pinout Tables (it's on the KOP Website)

− Active drive output

• 4mA current source
• 8mA current sink

FIRST sites to be aware of (I keep them in my signature too):

• Competition Manuals (also points to the two below): http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/...nt.aspx?id=452
• Kit Of Parts Website: http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/....aspx?id=18530
• Software Updates: http://usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/....aspx?id=18758

You get there by going to usfirst.org, then choosing FRC at the top, then from the left-hand menu Game & Season Info->Competition->Competition Manual & Related Docs

I counted 73 links on the KOP website, I'm not too surprised it got lost in the crowd.
