I have as you see in the flowchart.. put a LED out to flash for 1 second on and 1 second off.. which it does... After programming the chip.. I switc...

I retried both in Flowcode 8 and then on Flowcode 9... (also I downloaded the new version of Flowcode 9 - and it installed itself. I also did t...

BUT that also did not work.!!! So I have scrapped trying to use any FLOWCODE components per se...!! BUT HEY MAN... WAIT.... soon...

Re: MCP41010 Digital Pot
Hello again.. OK so I got the use of a scope..and I particularly was very careful about just having only the MCP41XXX component in the flowcode.!! I also only did a FLOWCODE 9 - flowchart.. I setup a software loop.. so that the SETWIPER command was only used.. so as to set say 0,30,1 .... then wait ...
