Switching from Demo Board to Gadget Gangster

Posts: 5
I am working on a school project with other students. We originally had a circuit and code that fully worked on the Demo Board. We are now trying to get the same code and circuit to work on a Gadget Gangster board. We can not figure out why it is not working. Is there anything that needs to change on either circuit or the code to make this transition? We are in dire need of help! 1/4 of the semester is already gone!

Can you tell us which parts are not working?
Are you using certain hardware on the Demo Board that may have different pin assignments on the GG board?
The more details you provide, the better/faster, people can help!
Does the GG use a different baud rate?
We are not using any hardware on the board other than the propeller chip and both boards have the same chip.
At this time we can not narrow it down to what part is not working. Any help with general difference between the two boards would be good to know.

Do you only have one GG board? (To check if the problem is the difference between boards vs a bad chip.)
Does the program used to turn the LED on and off use a PLL clock mode?
It's relatively easy to damage the PLL circuit of the chip. When this happens the Propeller will work using the internal oscillator but not with a crystal.
We have tried this on two different GG boards.
No we do not use a PLL clock mode for the testing of the LED light
The board is brand new and we stopped using the first one because we thought we may have done something to it.
Can you move the ADC circuit to different pins?
I've used fullduplexserial many times over here and all I use are GG boards now..
Any chance you could Archive your objects for us and attach them to the forum?

- under prop tool press F7 -> recognize the prop and the port
- set the port accordingly in the teminal windows
