ppg.on(True)

origSrc = ppg.syncSource()
print('Sync source is', origSrc)
ppg.syncSource('clock64')
ppg.syncSource(origSrc)

ppg.amplAndOffs()

Sync source is fixed

# Mess with the pattern here, watch the lights in lab alternate
ppg.setPrbs(16)
print('Pattern was', ppg.getPattern())
for _ in range(4):
    print('flipping')
    ppg.setPattern(1 - ppg.getPattern())
    time.sleep(1)

Pattern was [0 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1]
