Introduction

The infra-red remote control features a tv style remote and receiver with 6 digital and 2 analogue channels - each with 16 power levels. The outputs will source a current of up to 800mA, enabling small motors, bulbs and buzzers to be connected directly to the receiver. The remote control has a range of approximately 10 metres, although this may vary according to light conditions. Possible applications for the controller include: electronic locks, model vehicle control, robotics, appliance control for disabled users, model rocket launching, control in high risk environments, etc.

Any motors connected to the receiver should be suppressed by soldering a 220nF polyester capacitor across the terminals of each motor. The illustration shows a motor connected to output A. The direction of rotation can be reversed by swapping the connections of the motor to the board.

OPTIONAL POWER SUPPLY FOR OUTPUT DEVICES As an option, a second battery can be connected to the board to power high current output devices. This prolongs the life of the receiver battery and prevents any malfunction if, for example, several outputs switched on together cause the receiver battery voltage to drop. If a second battery is used, it is connected at the points marked EXT PWR and it is necessary to remove the link resistor as indicated in the illustration.

If the Motor Controller board is connected to the receiver in this way, buttons 1 - 9 will switch the two motors A and B as follows: Transmitter Button 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Buggy Motion Forward left Forward Forward right Right spin Stop Left spin Reverse left Reverse Reverse right Motor A Forward Forward Off Reverse Off Forward Reverse Reverse Off Motor B Off Forward Forward Forward Off Reverse Stop Reverse Reverse
Button 0 switches on output 5 and button 10+ switches on output 6. Note: If the buggy does not move forward when button 2 is pressed, it will be necessary to swap the terminal connections on one or both of the motors.
