Any Rainbowduino Help PLEASE

I have a rainbowduino and can't do anything with it someone please help

Have you thought of using it as a paperweight?

Seriously, what have you tried, and how do you think you fail to do what you want?

Seriously paperweight is a good idea. I've managed to get the examples to work but what I need to know is how to use the functions that are in the manual. What I want to do is serial connection from rainbowduino to arduino and then serial connection from arduino to my laptop I know how to do serial communication from my laptop to the arduino its sending data to the rainbowduino thats the problem an example of setting one dot one colour would be brilliant
