Re: Help with the IR board
It could be a couple of different things causing the problem
1) The +5 vdc regulator is shot. Replacing it will fix that issue.
2)The code in the board might be corrupt. There will be people at the regionals that can re-program the board.
There is another option. Kevin Watson has written code that uses a simple VISHAY sensor to entirely replace the IR board. $2 for the sensor, one PWM cable and ten minutes of coding and you should be good to go. This "Sticky" post has all the details.
