  2. Drag the Block Controller into the design.
  3. Add a control to the Block Controller.
  4. Set the control to Indicator.
  5. Set the type to LED.
  6. Set the count to 2.
  7. Name the LED “LED”.
  8. Add a control to the Block Controller.
  9. Set the control to Text Box.
  10. Set the count to 2.
  11. Name the Text Box  “Dial String”.
  12. Open the block editor. Use the example below to set the controls.

  1. When a call comes in or out,  enter a string in the Dial Sting field to have the Block Controller set the LED to true.  
  2. Expose the LED pin to have to control other Boolean components control input(s).
