And Now With LEDs

I've updated my operational prototype with the LEDs as Amit suggested in class. After trying them out, it seems I need to determine how they should behave after I've pressed the "A" button and I've used the ">" or "<" to go out of the range of the characters indicated by the new LEDs.

Options:

  • LEDs only stay on after "A" is pressed until the ">" or "<" buttons are pressed
  • LEDs always reflect the current position in the character set

What do you think?

I'm also wondering for the final prototype if I need to expose the "mem" and mem "<" buttons. They are not completely necessary for the operation I want to work with: setting the name. The "<" button allows review of the current items in memory. Is the idea here to simulate everything or just enough to show the concept we're trying to improve?
