[QUOTE="kevinj, post: 13911, member: 175402"] Thanks for the very prompt replys. You're correct, I have found a perminant 5 volt output for a polarizor on my Manhatten. Ive connected it up with no success. I think it might be an issue with the ground. Ive tried 1 additional wire from +5v on Manhatten to actuator also tried the +5v and changing the actuator ground wire from the EZ positioner (marked sensor -) to the Manhatten ground. Still no joy. Do you think it would be OK to connect the Manhatten ground to the EZ positioner sensor -. Or would I be better trying a 6v battery first. [/QUOTE]
