The LEGO shaft encoder and light sensor are active sensors that need a special circuit. The Expansion Board for the HB provides this ckt and the requisite drivers. Your simplest path to using these with the HB is to get an Exp Bd. Barring that, you (...) (23 years ago, 7-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
