Cool Re: CD 47 IR Board w/pictures

I have attached a picture of the Chief Delphi IR board w/modifications.
The board has been modified to include a 2 pin power connector with
reverse battery power protection (1N4007 diode, in line with +12V
power), 4 PWM wire outputs (pins 5,6,7,8) of 10 pin connector have
been wired to the top pin of the three wire pwm headers. Hopefully, this
will provide some help to rookie teams trying to figure out how to
wire the IR board to their robot. A special FIRST thanks to Frank Leritz,
Sr. Engineering Associate, of the Hybrid Powertrain labs at the HDC
in Troy, Michigan for making the changes.

Two of the the four pwm cables are shown. One is VEX compatible,
the other IFI controller compatible.

CD moderator. Still trying to figure out this website posting stuff.
Please move to new Thread, thanks.
