How do you wire the gear tooth sensor?
Hi,

Our team hasn't used sensors other than the CMU camera and limit switches before. We have an idea how to program the gear tooth sensor, but how do you wire it? PWM cables seem to fit well, and I see that they are what the manual recommends. How do you fasten the PWM cable into place on the sensor board? Soder?

Where on the RC or robot do you connect the PWM cable that supplies the 12Vdc operating voltage?

And the +5 cable connects to a Digital Input port on the RC, no?

Any advice would be appreciated!
