Re: Problems with IR Board
We received ours today and hooked it up tonight but it seems totally dead. We tried a benchtop power supply set to ~13 VDC and a standard 9V battery. No LEDs did anything at all no matter what we did. We checked the power at the board and even connected power directly to the 1&2 (Vin) and 3&4 (GND) input pins on the 10 pin header directly via micro clips to eliminate any issues with the ribbon cable. Is it possible we just got a bad board? Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas how to fix or further test it? Anyone know how we would go about getting a replacement?
