MO VFD2041 Help!

Wassup guys! I've just joined this forum wondering if anyone there can help me with my Matrix Orbital VFD2041? To begin with, I had difficulty using the software that came with my vfd and ended up downloading and using LCD smartie which I might add is really easy to set up and use. But the thing is there's only a limited amount of plugin that I could find. My VFD comes with 1 GPO which I'd like to use but don't know how? Someone says "LED" but not sure how to connect it. HELP!!!

If anyone there know where else I can download Plugins that might be useful, please let me know.

I'd like ones that works with media player 10 and maybe some graphic display or visualizer of sort. Thanks in advance all!

"D"

Wiring of the led is hardware and independant of software - so MO should help you. [And I checked the MO forums and they have helped you on the hardware front].

As for controlling the GPO - check out the GPO(gpo#,0/1) action in the action plane.
