Hello Dfrobot,

I have purchased the V7 sensor shield in order to connect sensors easily at my arduino Leonardo.The problem is that its simply doesnt work.The restart button of the shield seem to work and the same goes for the shield,but when i connect the SR04 ultrasonic sensor,it simply doesnt work.When i connect the sensor directly to arduino without the sensor shield it works,so i guess something goes wrong with the shield.
In order to connect the sensor to the shield,i connect GND to a random black GND pin of the digital pin layout of the shield.Also i connect Vcc to a random VCC red pin of the shield.I connect Trigger with a random GREEN pin (which i define at the code) and also Echo to another green pin,which i also define at the code.Is something wrong with the connections,or the shield is defective or doesnt work with LEonardo?
I would appeciate your help,thank you in advance for your time.

When you press the "RST" on the shield, whether the led is blinking?
And what is about the switch? "PROG" side or "RUN" side?
Please turn it to the RUN side, and try again.
