Re: IR Board Problem

We have had our IR board quit as well. Our board had the voltage regulator removed and bypassed and was powered from the 5 volt rail where signals from it were connected. It was working when it was hooked up yesterday, but we power cycled the robot a number of times last night during testing. There were no wiring adjustments so we are sure it was not miss-wired since the last time it worked. When we came in this morning, after patching in an in-line power switch first that was suggested in the team update, and the IR board was not responding. If we put it in learn state it goes through the learn sequence until you get to the fourth light and then it freezes during the second check on the fourth light.
