OPTO THEORY
The opto receiver (Photo Transistor) should be approximately 0.1-0.7 volts when the opto beam
is unblocked and approximately 11-13 volts when the opto beam is blocked. The opto transmitter
(L.E.D.) should always be approximately 1.4 volts. Note, the transmitter (L.E.D.) is larger than
the receiver (Photo Transistor); it protrudes further from its case.
