Simple LED (PacDrive) Testing Software?
« on: September 17, 2011, 05:29:51 pm »
Anyone know of a utility that runs in windows that would let me easily toggle LEDs on or off on a PAC Drive to just test wiring/config and make sure everythings good to go?  Thinking of something where you just click a number and it lights that LED.  Nothing fancy.

And..nevermind.  Seems that a file/app to do that is in the SDK on the site - just doesn't say it is!

You don't need to download the SDK for software to test the PacDrive.

You can also download PacLED64.exe which is available on the same page (admittedly though it is a bit hard to find).

Well, I actually couldn't even get it to work...so...I grabbed LEDBlinky and used one of the apps in that.  Then realized it wasn't that the app was screwey, it was that I was wiring it backwards (i.e., G to the ground on the Pacdrive...how silly of me :/ ... who would have guessed that was not the right way to do it.)
