C.5 LCD/Keypad Module Function APIs
When mounted on the RCM3000/RCM3100 Prototyping Board, the LCD/keypad module uses the auxiliary I/O bus on the Rabbit 3000 chip. Remember to add the line
#define PORTA_AUX_IO
to the beginning of any programs using the auxiliary I/O bus.
C.5.1 LEDs
When power is applied to the LCD/keypad module for the first time, the red LED (DS1) will come on, indicating that power is being applied to the LCD/keypad module. The red LED is turned off when the brdInit function executes.
One function is available to control the LEDs, and can be found in the RCM3000.LIB library in the SAMPLES\RCM3000 directory.

C.6 Sample Programs
Sample programs illustrating the use of the LCD/keypad module with the RCM3000/
RCM3100 Prototyping Board are provided in the SAMPLES\RCM3000 directory.
These sample programs use the auxiliary I/O bus on the Rabbit 3000 chip, and so the #define PORTA_AUX_IO line is already included in the sample programs.
