Need details on LTX sensor connecting wires

Posted by Lewis on March 7, 2012, 12:58 pm

I'm going to build a LTTO compatible Advanced Combat Rifle with Arduino in charge of everything. However, in order to get consistent sensor sensitivity and a cheap, reliable way to house a sensor, I think I'll use the LTX stock sensor dome as my sensor.

My knowledge to LTX sensor dome is limited to:
* One of the wires is 5V
* One of the wires is GND
* One of the wires controls the red LEDs
* One of the wires sends logical low when detecting 38khz signal.

But I don't know which one is which and there are 5 wires instead of 4!!!

Can someone give me some more details regarding those wires??

Thanks so much!
