If you could watch the OPTAscope Plot Area while you programmed the BASIC Stamp,
you would see the signal change from high (5 V) to low (0 V). Now you can see that the
oscilloscope displays a low (0 V) as a line starting right at the blue arrow to the left.
Since the BASIC Stamp is not changing the voltage level on this I/O pin during the
program, you see a flat line. The next activity will generate a voltage that changes over
time to make the plotted signal more interesting.
