Display a number 0-342 using the RGB LEDs on a Move38.com blink

// Display a number 0-342 on the LEDs
// The number is shown in base 7 format with red, green, 
// and blue being the 1's, 7's, and 49's places respecitively
// A 0 digit is shown as OFF. Digits 1-6 are shown as 1-6 LEDs
// lit with the place color. 
//
//   0 = All Off
//   1 = 1 RED
//   2 = 2 RED
//   ...
//   6 = 6 RED
//   7 = 0 RED, 1 GREEN
//   8 = 1 RED, 1 GREEN         (both on LED 0 so you see yellow)
//   9 = 2 RED, 1 GREEN         (you see 1 yellow, 1 red)
//   ...
//  48 = 6 RED, 6 GREEN         (you see 6 yellow)
//  49 = 0 RED, 0 GREEN, 1 BLUE 
//  50 = 1 RED, 0 GREEN, 1 BLUE (you see 1 purpule)
//   ...
// 341 = 5 RED, 6 GREEN, 6 BLUE (you see 1 purpule, 5 white) 
// 342 = 6 RED, 6 GREEN, 6 BLUE (6 white)
