Re: How should we wire the photoswitchs?

The side of the DSC that is labeled Digital i/o has 14 sets of 3 pins(sig, pwr, -) we have the sensors connected as so all with the white pwm cables.

right to digital i/o 3
center to digital i/o 2
left to digital i/o 1

There is a set of two pins right next to those 14 that are labeled pwr and (-). i am guessing that they supply power to the digital i/o pins. we put a volt meter on the pins and the supplied power when the jumper was connected.
