Decimal Point on Seven Segment Display for DE2-115

Hi everyone, 

 

On the DE2-115 development board's 8 7-segment-displays, there are decimal points. There are, however, no FPGA pin numbers to access these decimal points--at least I can't find them when looking at pages 37-39 of the DE2_115_User_manual.pdf  

 

Does anyone using this board know if it is possible to turn the decimal points on the seven-segment-displays on and off? 

 

Thanks very much, 

Nate

The decimal points aren't connected on the DE2-115 board. You should be able to find cheap 7 segment displays on ebay or amazon that have a decimal point.
