The Digital LED Indicator produces light that is usable as visual feedback for a human user. Using the Digital LED Indicator to show what state the robot is in is useful for debugging autonomous and teleoperated programs. Other sensors used with the LED Indicator can let robot operators know a variety of things, from if the robot has game elements to the robot being blocked from completing an action.
Configure the green LED on port 0 as "green." Configure the red LED on port 1 as "red."
Each digital port on the Control (or Expansion) Hub is capable of acting as two separate ports, thanks to the two channels of communication. This is why the ports are marked as 0-1, 2-3, etc. The n+1 channel operates on odd-numbered ports 1-7 and the n channel operates on the even number ports 0-6. Due to the two channels of communication, the green and red LED must be configured on the ports that correspond with their respective channel of communication.
The sample code below changes the color of the Digital LED Indicator based on the state of a Touch Sensor (REV-31-1425).
More information on digital ports and the channels of of communication on the Control and Expansions Hubs can be found in the Digital Sensor documentation. More information on the communication channels that the LED Indicator uses can be found in the .
