  • Create a new flowchart.
  • Open the 'Outputs' toolbox, where you stored the exported 'newLED' component. (If no destination was specified for the exported component, it would appear in the 'Misc' toolbox.)
  • Locate the 'newLED' component, and use the down-arrow next to it to add it to the System Panel. It can now be used in the same way as any other electronic device.
  • Create a flowchart which uses the imported component.
  • Add a component macro to the flowchart, and double-click on it.
  • Click on the 'Simulation' tab. The simulation macros, 'LEDoff' and 'LEDon',appear in the tree.
  • Click on the one you want, and then click on 'OK'.
