Re: tau pipe red/green led wiring?

2008-05-12 by wjhall11

Thanks much for the clarification, Mark - but Jurgen did say this in
his note to us: 

"The Tau needs two separate LEDs, I'm afraid. (Unless someone offers a
dual LED with 4 pins, i.e. sharing neither anode nor cathode.)"

So I guess a three lead dual-color LED won't work either according to
Jurgen.  <shrug>
