Need tips on wiring the IR board
Hey guys, we started hooking up the IR board yesterday, and are looking for a bit of help.
We got all the appropriate wires connected, but rather messily. We soldered the pwm cables and battery wires to the appropriate pins using the ribbon cable, but... The pwm cables are about twice as large as the ribbon, cables, and theres one wire on the pwm cables that is unused (white wire on each pwm cable connects to one each of the signal outputs, each black is connected to common ground, red is hanging there). The battery wires are enormous compared to the ribbon cable (using standard backup battery + wires).
We currently have a bunch of wires going all over the place, of which all connections are soldered together then electrical taped.
Did we do this right, and is there some way to clean it up?
I'll hopefully get a picture of this tomorrow to help.
