0, 1 or 2 digits can be used (defined in pbx_config.h). If no digits are used, the current bank is
displayed on the LCD (requires a 2×20 display)

The shift register of the 1st digit (the one's display) must be defined in pbx_config.h
The second digit (ten's) will be automatically assigned to the next shift register.

If only 1 digit is used, and bank goes higher than 9. The dot will light up to let you know that '0' is
actually 10, '1' is actually 11, etc

In place of LED digits. A 2×20 LCD Display can be used (instead of 2×16). The last 4 charcters of each
line are used for bank display. This will only happen when DIGITS_CONNECTED = 0 in pbx_config.h.

Buttons, LEDs and LED Digits are only available for Pedal Board mode

Relays

Up to 8 relays can be connected to trigger external switches. Relays can be triggered with a button
(PbD), a midi event (PbX) or within Rig Control (both).
Relays can also have separate indicator LEDs.

Relays connect to any free shift register (defined in pbx_config.h). The relay indicator LEDs are also
assigned their own shift register.

NOTE: Be sure that you use free shift registers. Remember if you use LED indicators for buttons, the
shift registers taken up by buttons are the same for their LED's. If not all buttons have LED's you must
leave the DOUT pin's free on any pin that has a button connected on it's DIN counterpart.
If you don't use button indicator LED's, they can be disabled in pbx_config.h, freeing up the DOUT
shift registers for use by relays or LED digits.
