Re: Led
First off, what's this responder you speak of? Is it some circuit you built or is it something you bought? We need some details on this.

I'm also not sure what exactly your problem is. You said that the motor is being powered. What's not working correctly?

You mentioned having two separate power supplies. This implies that you have two seperate circuits. I'm going to take a guess and say that you have some sort of transmitter and some sort of reciever. It sounds like your transmitter is some sort of IR LED circuit. And it sounds like your reciever is some sort of IR detector that turns a motor on when it sees the LED. Is this correct?
