+COILING RIG CODE V10:
+This code is used to operate the Carbon Fibre actuator construction rigs. The buttons on this rig operate as follows:          
+ 
+ - Reset:
+            This button simply reboots the board and restarts the code.
+
+ - Function:
+            This button chooses between the functions of the board
+ 
+ - Select:
+            This selects the part of the function in the interface to be changed 
+  
+ - Up:
+        This increases either the number of coils or annealing time
+ 
+ - Down:
+        This decreases either the number of coils or annealing time
+ 
+ - Start/Stop:
+                
+                
+Useful code information:
+    Function 0 = Turn
+    Function 1 = Anneal
+    Function 2 = Test

+    TextLCD lcd(D0,D1,D4,D5,D6,D7); // rs, e, d4-d7
+    TendonPower (PWM) pin is PE_8  one below d0
