Hi guys,
Assuming that you have theElmod cable that connect the CSI card to the Elmod appleand looking at the 8 ways HL style connector the first groupof threewires are :
pink = GND
blue= +5V
green = led kathode
then we have a blank position, after this we have a group offour wires as follow:
orange = left sensor
red = rear sensor
brown = front sensor
black = right sensor
so, what we gonna do now ??? Well we need the pink, blue, green and brown that must be connected this way :
pink(GND) to TBU pin named V0
blue(+5V) to TBU pin named V+
Green(led kathode) to TBU pin namedLED-
Brown(FRONTSENSOR) to TBU pin named IRSIG
the free pin left on the TBUmust be connected to battery+ of the system (Elmod use +5V to supply the leds, Tamiya use 7.2V)
You can find the TBU connectionsimage with description andnamesusing google (type in : Tamiya battle unit connections)
(Sorrythis to avoid claims with image owners).
If not clear drop a line and when i come back to work at the end of the weeki'll make a simple schematic.
Cheers
Ivano
I'm wanting to make sure I understand this correctly, the free pin of the TBU needs to be connected to a constant 7.2v supply?
