you were right when you thought the sketch wasnt right on the teensy. I found this late last night
I was able to flash the teensy with the correct code and it started working. 2-3 led lights came on the front of the board and I was able to run the phidets with input from the WAS. This took me many many hours to figure out. I cant get my printer to talk to my laptop so this is a stretch
Thank you for your input
