If you only use one motor controller IC you  can use the 16 pin socket of
the second motor control to get 4 more outputs.

Then you can connect the INIT and BINH to these and have Port D control your
V2x compass.
All you have to do is modify your sonar.c program to use these new pins.

I hope that helps.
P.S. If you need more info let me know.

Hi,

Wouldn't it be possible to wire them both to the same input port and turn
on the one that you want information from and turn the other off?  For
example, the polaroid sonar data states that you can control turning on
and off the device, so you turn that one on for the majority of the time
but turn it off momentarilly and turn on the V2x to get information and
then turn it back off and turn on the sonar again.  OR,  can it be done in
a hardware fashion (which probably would be better)?

Thanks in advance,

Scott
