i have this problem with this program looping when it shouldn't, i have 12 leds on output B0 to B7 and C4 to C7, now when i turn them on one at a time its fine, if i then turn off all port B and then use port masking to turn off C4 to C7 the program turns off the leds but loops back and turns them all on again one at a time. The only way i can get it to work correctly is if i turn off C4 then C5 then C6 then C7 and it works perfectly. Any ideas and i also put a counter in so i could control it turn on the next level of 12 leds and that wouldn't work unless i turned C port off individually. what i am playing about with is a led tower 12 leds in rows and 12 high, like the ones off ebay but i am only using the first 2 rows until i get the hang of flowcode. Hopefully its just me but i have tried everything and cant get it to work unless port c turned off individually. I even tried turning off all port C and it still looped when i have no loops or connection point in to make it do that. By turning off i mean output 0. Thanks

Hi
If you post your chart we can have a look. Without it we have no way of knowing what is going on.

Hi
When you save your chart you get a file with a .fcfx extension (for example, test.fcfx).
This is the file you need to attach. If you click on Full Editor & Preview you will see an option to attach the file (you may need to scroll down) or you can just drag-n-drop into the reply window.
We really do need to see the chart to help.
Regards
