Ok, So I re-entered the port number again and initially it had no obvious affect on the port, bearing in mind I was aiming for pins 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7 as inputs. I unchecked and recheched the box activating "pins 2-9 as inputs" and pressed apply ...no luck. Tired AC07 to same deal...
I decided to resolder one wire to pin 15 to see if that pin worked... And it DID... leads me to believe that there may be the way I have configed things. Then resoldered the wiring to 10, 11,12,13 & 15 for port 2 and they all worked... tried it in port 1 with these same pins 10-13 and 15 and it worked....
SOOOO... Apart from checking the "pin 2-9 as inputs" box is there anything else to configure to have port 2 pins 2-9 as inputs?
