Can someone please attempt to help me out.. second posting???
I want to get five handyboards to talk to each other using infrared
transmission... I use infrared transmitter/receiver reflectance sensors
for other things...
1) What parts (I need distributer and part number) do I need to get and
can I hook up 4 trnsmitters in series to the IR output ports?
What else do I need?
2) Will it be a problem using the IR transmitters to send signals while
using the reflectance sensors near the receivers???
P.S. I hooked up a high output infrared transmitter (dark blue glass) to
the IR OUT sockets, and used ir_transmit_on to activate it. I used the
Radio Shack plastic IR sensor (cool thing) and it works, but the LED gets
really hot... DO I still need a 330 ohm (or so) resistor between anode and
Handyboard???
Sincerely,
Yoni Garbourg
