IR Board Programming/Wiring Problems

Alright, so our team wired up the IR to digital ins, saw the lights flash on the board. But the outputs we got were very wierd. no matter what we did, it always said command 1,2, and 4 were 0 (being used), and 3 was 1 (not being used). We wired to IR to ground, a 12V supply, and each cmd line to a signal on the microprocessor. In bench testing, this worked fine. We used WPILib and used the default and such and saw the lights on the OI light up along with the board when we hit buttons. Any help with general setup/use using the first four digital inputs would be great.
