===Digital Output (LED)===

When you double click on an LED object, a window like the one pictured will open.

* At the top of the window, information about your device and the properties of this particular channel will be listed.
* In the middle, the on/off button will toggle the state of the LED. The duty cycle slider will control the effective power supplied to the LED, where 0.0 is "none" and 1.0 "full power".
* At the bottom there's a selection for the forward voltage mode. The higher voltage you choose, the brighter the LED will glow, but don't set it higher than the maximum specified on the LED's datasheet, or it may burn out. Set the current limit to whatever the forward current is specified as in the LED's datasheet.
