As the subject says, I got one of these. No questions yet, but I suspect many will be coming along!

    This is a friendly place to post questions. Just ask away!

    Welcome!

    Warning, opening the cover on that can be addictive! Have fun, and ask away.

    Amanda: Welcome to the world of the prop. I can vouch for it being addictive :)

    I got the board set up with only two wiring errors... a lot of small holes, up too late and a couple of fairly old eyes! ;-)
    Got the pushbuttonled.spin program entered and loaded on the EEPROM, but it doesn't work. Went through the troubleshooting steps and everything "looks" okay. I'll try again a little later when the sun comes up. :-)

    Okay, never mind. The wiring is fine. The code was typed in... sort of okay, but the indents in the subroutine were wrong. All is fine for now. Old programming lesson forgotten... "Never code after midnight without strong coffee!!" :-)
    (Darned picky about formatting tho'!!)

    And many thanks for the welcomes!

    ajward,
    Welcome to the world of all things Prop. I started with the education kit but it was not long before I was using the PPDB (Professional Propeller Development Board). I still have my Prop Education kit setup and use it for quick tests when the PPDB has a layout setup that I don't want to mess with. Just in case you have not figured it out yet, the single best thing about the Propeller is this forum. If I were on a desert island and could only have one thing, I think it would be access to this forum !
