Okay,
Try using a for() loop in your cog to go through all the sectors, and set whatever needs to be set in it.

Code: 
symbols

...
int         NumSectors         
#Set this in Jed to however many sectors you have, since I haven't figured out how to get the SectorCount at the moment.  
#I'm not even sure that there is a way.

end

...
for(int i=0;i<=NumSectors;i=i+1){
//do stuff using i as the sector ref
}
...


Hopefully that should work for you. I'm pretty sure I got the for() loop syntax correct, but I may be mistaken on the condition part.

It doesn't werk! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]
Okay, so what it should do is red flashing light in every sector. Copy that?
Code: 
symbols

message		startup
message		pulse

int	NumSectors

float		period=1.0

int		cmap=0		local

end

# ========================================================================================

code

startup:
	SetPulse(period);
	return;

# .................................................................................

pulse:
	cmap = 1 - cmap;
	for(int i=0;i<=NumSectors;i=i+1) {
	SetColorMap(NumSectors, cmap);
	}
	return;

end
