Looking at the back (solder-side) of the IR sensors PCB, the red wire should be on the left. The cable is polarized, and will only go on one way. The PING))) sensor will have the black wire on the left-most pin of the three pin connector (labeled GND), when viewed from the sensor side of its board (see image, below). Step 2: After you connect the 3-wire cable to the PING))), bend the connector/cable assembly to (approx.) a 45 degree angle as shown here The bending of the connector assembly provides the necessary space for the two sensors to be mounted in close proximity to each other. Step 3: Place a 1/16 thick plastic washer onto each of the (2) Pan Head screws, and insert the screw through the backside of the PING))) printed circuit board (PCB). Step 4: Now place two plastic spacers onto the Pan Head screws and secure the PING))) sensor to the stand, thus spacing the PING))) PCB out from the stand itself. Copyright Parallax Inc.
