Re: Photoeye's not working-Difference between RoboRIO and Digital Side Card?

Al, I don't have access to a scope.
Seeing I don't completely understand the circuitry of the sensor, or the roboRio, Let me state what I think I am to do to test.

Wire a resistor (1k, 10k) from the 3.3v+ which looks to be available on the MXP port pin 33, to the signal line of DIO6, along with the sensor output. Sensor still being powered from the 12v 2a rail of the VRM.

Did I follow that right?
