Re: Using the IR

Your best bet would to be referencing the ground of the IR board directly to the ground of the digital inputs by connecting it there at the ports that you connect the signal pins to. One wire then runs to a 12 volt supply panel.

Re: Using the IR

Could anyone give me link to http://johnmchilton.com/FIRSTIR.pdf at another site? I am looking into how to wire the IR board to the bot, but that site for some reason is blocked at our school.
