Hi Jon, believe you might be correct when said "frustraion getting in the way".  
Decide to put my efforts into a new approach. Heres a work-around for the READ/DATA.

 

update_Segs:
  Segs = Blank                                  ' blank segs
  'READ DigMap + digPntr, DigCtrl                ' select display element
  if digPntr = 1 then dig1
  if digPntr = 2 then dig2
  if digPntr = 3 then dig3
  if digPntr = 4 then dig4
  workaround:
  Segs = display(digPntr)                       ' output new digit segs


 

 

 

then modified this piece of the code

 

DigMap: 
dig1:
  DigCtrl = %11111110                                        ' digit select map
  'DATA %11111110
     goto workaround
dig2:
  DigCtrl = %11111101
  'DATA %11111101
     goto workaround
dig3:
  DigCtrl = %11111011
  'DATA %11111011
     goto workaround
dig4:
  DigCtrl = %11110111
  'DATA %11110111
     goto workaround

 

Code compiles, though believe the 4-segement-display might have a few LEDs mis-wired.

Can see any errors/issuses this modifacition might cause? 

 

Thanks for the tech support suggestion Jon. I give them a call after work tomorrow.
