Hello.

I´m trying to connect six receivers of ultrasonic, but I´m not completely sure how can I connect them.
I´m transmitting a burst of ultrasound and then measuring the time it takes to arrive to the reciever.
I need a omnidirectional reciever, thats why i have to put them toguetter.
¿Can I put them in series to form a larger reciever?
I´m using the 400ST/R160 for this porpose.

I would connect the sensors in parallel. They can be connected without interaction between sensors using an Op Amp summing amplifier.

No you cant put them in series to form a larger receiver.
