TM1637 4 Digit 7 Segment Display

Hello can anyone help me i cant get the “Example test timer” by Cesars to work.i have loaded the program, using debug i can see the program executing but i dont get any thing on pins 10 and 11 to the point where i looked at the output pins with an oscilloscope there is nothing there.Pin 13 flashes as per the code.
Using the Arduino IDE with the same display and UNO board i can get it to work no probs.!

hi, did you try doing a reset?

Yes multiple, this is driving me insane.
If i load a simple sketch using Arduino IDE, alls good, the sketch outputs on pins 2 and 3, 3 being the clock.
I have checked outputs 10 and 11 driving leds O/K
the board i am using is brand new (Freetronics Ether Ten which is advertised as 100% uno compatible.
Cesars are pins 10 and 11 the only pins that i can use for the display ?.

you can use any digital pin, w5100 and microSD use pins 10 and 11, you can try other pins
