@Films4You The cables seen in this video were not supplied with the kit. I already had these sitting in a draw :) If you google, you should be able to find some pretty decent tutorials on programming these chips. Just substitute the code in those tutorials with the code from my blog (URL in description) to get this running.
@shotox21 Hiya, there's a link in the video description which takes you to my blog post with more info. Feel free to quiz me further if it puzzles you at all.
Going off topic slightly, what was the issue with removing the Arduino chips? Just that they were physically difficult to remove or because they need ancillary components to make them operate?
Good video. I'd like to get into microcontrollers. One question: Once the micro is programmed, can you remove it from the development board and build the circuit with just the micro and two LEDs (and maybe a couple of resistors for the LEDs)? What I'm trying to find out is: will the programmed micro work without the launchpad kit?
@ForViewingOnly You sure can! All you need to watch out for is that you supply a constant high signal to pin 10 (RST). This brings the micro out of reset mode and begins operating.
I've put a little write-up and a video about this for you. A link to my site is in the description (apparently YouTube doesn't allow links in comments? - I'm new here!)
Did you get the power cable form Texas, or elsewhere?
Step-by-Step, from openend box to doing this, would be great... users may not know if the need to change from the pre-programmed chip supplied.

@garethsquaredisk Thanking You.
Can you give the code part "Toggle LED" that will turn off LED's if on
For me is seem if The LED is on when the code I use is finished, that LED will be on again when code is re-run when I want the LED's to be off

@garethsquaredisk Thank You :)

@Films4You I copied a line to turn off both LED's, (from your code), first. This fixed it for me. Thanking You :)
My code simple test to do a "slow" turn on/off each LED in turn

Thanks for the video, I'd be interested in your write up. I just moved from the Arduino, because it's such a pain in the butt to take chips off.

@garethsquaredisk Thanks for the new video, just watched it, that answers my question perfectly. Cheers.
