without adding any LEDs, one could MOVE the power LED to P31, and it would be just like it used to, except when this tool changes it.. so you could make OFF flashes make it flash the red power button..
Neat trick for those who don't want to add a new LED to get use of this program.

I think I'd have it turned off as the first line in my s:s-s and turn it on when the network is active, just need to find somewhere to put it. maybe the floppy drive bay cover...
| | | | | | Comment by: LyleHaze (72.218.245.165) | At: 03 Sep 2013, 10:24 | File version: 1.0 | That is correct. I'll try to be a bit more detailed:
On the Nemo board are a group of "headers" where case accessories are plugged in.
The red light behind the power button is connected to "P29", which should be on whenever the power is on.
If you want to add a Hard Drive activity light, you would plug it in to connector "P30". and the light will flash whenever your drives are active.
But there is one more connector marked "P31", which really does nothing at all. It just turns on and stays on forever.
Now if you happen to be one of those people who likes to "hack around", you could steal an LED with wire leads and a plug from most any old computer case, and plug it in to P31, and you could then use this program to control it. Maybe you want to add a light that comes on whenever you have mail. Or when some background task needs your attention. Just for fun I even had it blinking in time with my MIDI file player. (useless but cool). So that's what it's about. Lately I have used it to help me debug "interrupt code" which is normally hard to get messages from.. but flicking a light on takes no time at all. I hope this explains the purpose a bit better.

I tried it and nothings happens
| | | | | | Comment by: LyleHaze (72.218.245.165) | At: 03 Sep 2013, 01:14 | File version: 1.0 | I made a mistake.. The description says it controls a spare LED header on Xorro..
WRONG.. As apparent by the name of the program, it controls the spade LED header on Nemo, that's an X1000 board. Xorro/Xena have nothing to do with this one. Oops, sorry!
