Maybe worth a look over over rf mods of google rf mods to see if there is a 4 quadrant mod that the cr could be made to work with have you tried both circuits red and green to see if one will light any Easyer?

I'll be working on a simple solution for the newer RF boards.

Right ive got the RF board to light up all red when the debug light is lit, and the rol goes as it should:cool2:

The trick is to use a dioade on each led to prevent the current going back down and lighting all the leds up.
Please dont slate the soldering in the second photo as this was just set up to see if it would work.

Personally if i do it again i would use the spare wires from your coolrunner and solder wire to the led, route the wire throught the small hole at the bottom of the RF board and then solder them to the diode and insulate or get a chok block and connect them that way.

Thanks for confirming that using the diodes stop the issue with all the leds lighting up.

Edit added your picture for the 4 diode method added to OP.

I replaced the DBG LED for Blue, too, so internal has a nice blue sync'd flash too :) Thanks to everyone involved in this threads creation.

If I feel any better over the weekend, I'll play with Slim RF1410 :)

Yes I really need the get the new RF board sorted out. Try running a extra led in series with wth the exististing one. I wish we could flash the code from one rf board the the other. That way we could get the negitive to run constant and the positive to relay the pulse.

I'm just off out for some retail therapy as I've felt like sh*t for a week, then I'll maybe give it some time.

Thanks hope you get to feeling better and keep me posted on your progress. I had a 1410 come in last night so I'll be working a little on it today as well.
