How to connect e-blocks components
I can't find the documentation (or am I missing something) how to make e-blocks work with formula flowcode buggy. For example, I connected the EB004 (LEd array), but I can't make the leds work different from the leds on the buggy. Then, I connected the LCD display, but I can't make it work. I don't know where to look for answers. Pls, help me start.

Re: How to connect e-blocks components
The E-Blocks port on the buggy is connected to portd of the PICmicro. The connections of portd also go to the onboard LEDs, which explains why the LEDs display the same thing.
To use the LCD, just add the component to a Flowcode program and change the connections so they are set to portd. The same would be true for any E-Block you connect to it.
