    The Lab X1 has the LCD and LED bargraph sharing port D.

    That’s what I mean, Port D is only eight bit port, but there are ten LEDs in the bargraph.
    Would you mind telling me what pins the bargraph is connected?
    I can Google pictures of the board, but can’t see that close.

    Ok thanks, they only connected 8 of them to the port.
    Looking for ideas with a kind of dev board of my own.
    It might be a good idea to make something somewhat compatible with something commercial out there.
