Re: IR Receiver

I was about to start a new topic about the IR reciever with a similar question, but since a thread has already been started, I'll just play along.

From what I understand...
If the reciever is recieving a signal, than there would be a connection between the black and white wire (which connects to ground and SIG on digital input). If there is no signal than there would be a connection between the black and green wire. (which connects to ground and SIG on digital input).

So I believe you have a choose between the green and white wire...
IR will have to be powered externally with 12v. The black wire will than connect to both the ground, and the black port on digital input.

If someone can confirm what I just said, I will test this today at school.
