Regarding the PIN issue #10

Closed HATEr104 closed 2 months ago

I'm excited to find this library about LANC, but I noticed that my 2.5mm LANC interface has three wires, and I'm not sure how to connect them. I plan to use an 8266 board for control, do I need to convert to a 5v logic level?

This is the hardware I used: https://projecthub.arduino.cc/L-Rosen/serial-to-lanc-control-l-9b5d02. In general any bidirectional level shifter should do (https://www.digikey.com/en/blog/logic-level-shifting-basics). If you use 3.3v you should make sure that you also check the voltages on your camera in order to determine which side has higher levels (so to make the level shifter work).
