; Pin = 0 for the D7 output pin of the shift register

; Pin = 7 for the last output pin (D0) of the shift register
Is the above true? So it’s a mirror of not only the obvious, but also the DIN setup?
SR Pins are numbered that way

As this is directly taken from TK’s source code - yes it is true and yes, it is “mirrored” compared to the DIN setup. See: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,8518.msg59674.html#msg59674
DOUT:
; Pin = 0 for the D7 output pin of the shift register
; Pin = 1 for the D6 output pin of the shift register
; …
; Pin = 7 for the last output pin (D0) of the shift register
DIN:
; Pin = 0 for the D0 input pin of the shift register
; Pin = 1 for the D1 input pin of the shift register
; …
; Pin = 7 for the last input pin (D7) of the shift register
