-This started out as an iRippit X-50 50 Disc CD/DVD Duplicator.  I saw it on a deal site and figured I could hack it to get it to read CD's / DVD's instead of burn them.  I'm not interested in copying disc's I just want an easy way to auto load them for ripping to my NAS.
-At one point, I had a majority of my DVD's ripped to my Windows Home Server.  The hard drives in that ended up failing without much warning, and I lost a good chunk of that collection.  I still own the optical disc's and would like to re-rip them, but in an automatic way.
-Drivers for newer operating systems are not there, and the software this works with is really only designed to copy a bunch of the same disc over and over.  A band interesting in burning their own discs might like this.
-The first step was to remove all of the housing and electronics, and identify what things I can use and what each part is.

-I documented what I could figure out from each connecting wire:
-  * Bad Disk Full (Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue) [[https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/QRB1114.pdf|QRB1114]]
-  * Bin Full (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green) [[https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/QRB1114.pdf|QRB1114]]
-    * Pin 1 = Red = Emitter Anode
-    * Pin 2 = Orange = Emitter Cathode
-    * Pin 3 = Yellow = Sensor Emitter
-    * Pin 4 = Green = Sensor Collector
-  * Drive Door (Blue, Black, Purple, Yellow) [[https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/QRB1114.pdf|QRB1114]]
-  * Home Sensor (Red, Orange, Yellow) [[http://www.sharpsma.com/webfm_send/637|Sharp GP1A75E3J00F]] (Yellow = E)
-  * Disk Present (Red, Black, Blue) [[http://www.sharpsma.com/webfm_send/637|Sharp GP1A75E3J00F]] (Blue = E)
-  * Safety Int (Black, Read, Green) [[http://www.sharpsma.com/webfm_send/637|Sharp GP1A75E3J00F]] (Green = E)
-  * JP13 Greyish White Wires go to the Disc Release Solenoid.
-  * Stepper Motor [[http://jnker.com/equipment/step_pdf/Seriya-GD42STH_1.8.pdf|FL42STH47-1206AC]] (1.8 degrees 1.2A)
-     * Rated Voltage = 4V
-     * Current / Phase = 1.2A
-     * Resistance / Phase 3.3Ω
-     * Inductance / Phase 2.8mH
-     * Holding Torque = 3.17Kg-cm
-     * Rotor Inertia = 68g-cm^2
-     * Detent Torque = 200g-cm
-  * Power Supply 12V @ 2.5A

-This should be enough information to get going.
-I don't need the safety interrupt, so that leaves me with 5 sensors, 1 stepper and 1 solenoid that I need to interface with.

-That still left me with trying to identify that Sharp optical sensor since there are 2 of them I will need.
-I can see that the blue wire here is the Emitter, I'd really like to find the specs on this to make sure I drive it correctly.
-My search let me [[http://memakingthings.blogspot.com/2012/12/optical-interrupters.html|here]], not identical, but very close.  The 361 chip on my board is a current limiting resistor.
-A little experimenting with the lid sensor that I'm not going to need should help me figure out how to interface with this.
-Ohhh I found it [[http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/GP1A75E3J00F/425-2565-ND/857214|@ DigiKey 425-2565-ND]]
-[[http://www.sharpsma.com/webfm_send/637|Sharp GP1A75E3J00F]] I'm still not sure from this how to identify the other two leads.
-I had a heck of a time getting the .net gadgeteer board and the L6470 stepper controller to talk to any stepper motor.
-I was finally able to get this turning a stepper motor over the weekend.  It seems it's very sensitive to it's register settings.
-I had to use some software and a stepper motor datasheet to get some values to feed into their software.
-According to this:
-https://www.ghielectronics.com/community/forum/topic?id=8081&page=2
-Those values only get you close and you need to use an o-scope to tune it further.
-TODO:
-  * Hookup and test stepper motor to L6470 module
-  * Interface both types of optical sensors to gadgeteer board
-  * Write some rough code to exercise the machine using the optical sensors to prevent damage
-    * A loop that grabs CD's from source stack, drops them every other into the bins until bins are full.
-  * Write code to interface machine to PC to take simple commands and report back
-  * Write code on PC side to control machine and rip discs

-Andrew and I learned how to interface with the Disc Presence sensor.  It was very easy
-  * Blue Wire to Ground
-  * Red Wire to 5V
-  * Black Wire to Pin 3 (interrupt pin)
-<code csharp>
-        public bool IsDiscPresent { get { return !diskPresenceSensor.Read(); } }
-        private Gadgeteer.Interfaces.InterruptInput diskPresenceSensor;
-        private void SetupDiscPresenceSensor()
-        {
-            char_Display.PrintString("DiscSensorSetup");
-            diskPresenceSensor = breadBoard_X1.SetupInterruptInput(GT.Socket.Pin.Three, GT.Interfaces.GlitchFilterMode.On, GT.Interfaces.ResistorMode.PullUp, GT.Interfaces.InterruptMode.RisingAndFallingEdge);
-            diskPresenceSensor.Interrupt += diskPresenceSensor_Interrupt;
-            diskPresenceSensor.Read();
-        }
-        void diskPresenceSensor_Interrupt(GT.Interfaces.InterruptInput sender, bool value)
-        {
-            char_Display.Clear();
-            char_Display.PrintString(IsDiscPresent.ToString());
-        }
