Dual Aluminum Stand PING))) Ultrasonic and
Sharp IR Sensor Kit (#725-28915)
This aluminum bracket kit is designed for mounting
a PING))) Ultrasonic Distance Sensor and either
one of two popular Sharp IR Distance Sensors to
your project.
The precision machined ¼” thick high-grade
aluminum conveniently positions and protects the
sensors in both stationary and mobile robotics
applications. Assembly is quick and easy.

Assembly Instructions
Step 1:
Plug the cables into the sensors.
Looking at the back (solder-side) of the IR sensor’s 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 ¼” plastic spacers onto the Pan Head screws and secure the PING))) sensor to
the stand, thus spacing the PING))) PCB ¼” out from the stand itself.

Step 5:
Insert the light pipe through the hole in the top-center of the Dual Sensor Stand. Dab a tiny
drop of Krazy
™
glue on it to secure it more firmly (optional).
Step 6:
Insert the IR Sensor into its (rectangular) hole and insert the two remaining ¼” tall plastic
standoffs between the stand and the sensor tabs, using the two remaining Pan Head 4-40 screws.
Step 7:
Mount the sensor assembly to your project with the two 6-32 x ½” socket-head screws
(provided in the kit), using the ball-end 5/32” hex key – Parallax #725-00021 (included).
This completes the assembly of the Dual Sensor Stand.
