Re: Extending IR board connector wires

Hi Michael,

We also use the 10-pin connector, but we have it wired differently than Alan described. Our wiring guru wired one three-pin ("pwm") cable to the power, ground, and first signal lines, and another three-pin cable to the second, third, and fourth signal lines. The result is only using two three-pin cables while getting all the capabilities (the cables are connected to the RC in somewhat of an L shape - the first cable connects regularly to a digital IO pin, and the second one spans the next three signal pins afterwards).

Hope this helps.
