In docmentation about the FEZ SPider mainboard the configurable Led on the mainboard is mentioned. he led also exists, but i cannot find a way to use it other than PulseDebugLed()
I found reference to the mainboard class where SetDebugLed(True) should set the led ON , but i cant get that to work.
When i use the PulseDebugLed() , it switches the led on, but it doesnt switch offf untill the program ends…
It does however, write a “PulseDebug event” to the debug Output everytime i call the pulse command.
Does anybody know how to switch the led on or off…?

Bert
Could you try this code, and place a break point on the first line, and step through the code and tell me if the light comes on?
void ProgramStarted()
{
/*******************************************************************************************
Modules added in the Program.gadgeteer designer view are used by typing
their name followed by a period, e.g. button. or camera.
Many modules generate useful events. Type +=<tab><tab> to add a handler to an event, e.g.:
button.ButtonPressed +=<tab><tab>
If you want to do something periodically, use a GT.Timer and handle its Tick event, e.g.:
GT.Timer timer = new GT.Timer(1000); // every second (1000ms)
timer.Tick +=<tab><tab>
timer.Start();
*******************************************************************************************/
Mainboard.SetDebugLED(true); //Place a breakpoint here
Thread.Sleep(5000);
Mainboard.SetDebugLED(false);
// Use Debug.Print to show messages in Visual Studio's "Output" window during debugging.
Debug.Print("Program Started");
}
Thank you Steven,
I did not put Mainboard before the statement.
it works now.
Great to hear. I’m glad you got it working.
