I wonder if I am doing something wrong. I just got my developers kit and want to hook up a single LED. I have powered on and connected to the kit. I then added a "Set Digital" control to the project. But when I connect to the LED to the corresponding pins they do not turn on.
I have wired the LED to a servo wire with the long wire connected to the white wire and the short wire collected to the black wire.
I looked at the LED datasheet and it said the Forward voltage is 2.1V and the forward current is 20ma.
Should I use different LEDs?
Thanks,
Matt
This is an older Thread where many points of connecting an LED were brought up:

Thanks for the help!

Don't forget, when your requests for assistance threads are solved to mark them as such so the red ! will go away.
Yes the LED did turn on correctly. I also found that I did not solder a few of the connections as well as I had thought. Well more work tonight!
Thank you again,
