DC Motor Remote Controlling by iOS Mobile Phone Wi-Fi Controller

Wi-Fi is a popular technology that allows an electric device to access or connect to the internet wireless by radio waves. Many electric devices can use Wi-Fi, for example, personal computers, Smartphones, some digital cameras and tablet computers. Nowadays, Wi-Fi is also used widely at home, public places or industry.

So we design a brand new product, Smartphone Wi-Fi Controller, which is more convenient than any other remote control products. It will integrate with Smartphone, Wi-Fi network, controller and controlled device. It gives you perfect remote controlling experience.

It works under Wi-Fi connection. With 8-channel high-current output (30amp), you can wire at least 8 devices to it. With external antenna for longer range, the theatrical working distance is 2000M (6000ft) in the open air. Actually, we design this controller for 2 Smartphone working systems— 4.6 ~ 6.1 version iOS and 2.1 ~ 4.0 version Android systems. We will illustrate the iOS system controlling DC motor here. It must Work on the jailbroken iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch. Where there is Wi-Fi networking, there is this Wi-Fi controller. It Applied in modern agriculture field, smart home, instruments, equipment controlling. Wi-Fi remote control lights, motors, fan, electric doors / windows, aircraft, remote cars, remote toys, rolling blinds, pumps, winches, or other electrical devices with voltage AC110~240V or DC0~28V.

Here is the controlling procedure of DC motor for your information. The material is Wi-Fi controller, jailbroken iPod, DC motor and power adaptor.

Connect the motor to the output terminals of WIFI controller as the wiring diagram shown.

Switch on the power of WIFI controller. Wait until power led, ready led and link led turn on. So the Wi-Fi network is connected. After wireless network connection, press the icon of WIFI Controller software to turn it.

Set up working mode for each channel of relay. Four working modes Toggle, Momentary, Latching and Time Delay are provided.

Set up Momentary control mode: Press the “M” icon of any channel. Choose M (Toggle) control mode.

Press and hold button 1, the motor is positive rotation. Release button 1, motor stops.

Press and hold button 2, the motor is reverse rotation. Release button 2, motor stops.

1 Channel Mult-Modes Remote Switch for Float Switch and Pump

Question from customer:

A relay is activated by a float switch through 600 feet of underground wire (12 volt dc) to control a water pump. But this wire was broken. So controlling between float switch and relay is cut off. I need a transmitter activated by float switch, and a receiver which activates a 12 volt relay. I have 12 volt power supply for receiver and transmitter.

Answer:

We recommend the normally open/ closed remote control applied for device control another device (S1PU-DC12-ANT2 & CB-2N).

The transmitter, CB-2N, is battery-operated long range transmitter with extended two wires. Triggered method of this transmitter is connection of two wires. When two wires are closed, the transmitter will send signal to receiver. The receiver is high power with normally open and closed terminals. With extended antenna, the theoretical working distance of remote controller is up to 2000M. Now that the wire between float switch and relay was broken, you can connect your float switch to two wires of CB-2N, and use this receiver S1PU-DC12-ANT2to replace your 12 volt relay. Please see the following picture.

Normally open and closed terminals A&B are connected to water pump. And we supply power source to receiver.

When the tank is empty, the float switch circuit is closed to trigger transmitter (CB-2N) to send signal to receiver. When receiver receives “ON” signal, it will activate pump to fill water into tank. When the tank is full, the float switch circuit is open to open transmitter circuit to send signal to receiver. When receiver receives “OFF” signal, it will stop pump to pump water to tank.

Integrated Smartphone Wi-Fi Controller for LED Lamp

iOS system is a mobile operating system developed and distributed by Apple Inc. It is extended to support other Apple devices such as iPod Touch, iPad other than iPhone. As we known, Wi-Fi is an advantage local area network, which is received by any Smartphone including Apple device. Now we integrate Wi-Fi networking and device with iOS system to develop a brand new product, Smartphone Wi-Fi Controller.

It works under Wi-Fi connection. With 8-channel high-current output (30amp), you can wire at least 8 devices to it. With external antenna for longer range, the theatrical working distance is 2000M (6000ft) in the open air. Actually, we design this controller for 2 Smartphone working systems— 4.6 ~ 6.1 version iOS and 2.1 ~ 4.0 version Android systems. We will illustrate the iOS system controlling lamp here. It must Work on the jailbroken iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch. Where there is Wi-Fi networking, there is this Wi-Fi controller. It Applied in modern agriculture field, smart home, instruments, equipment controlling. Wi-Fi remote control lights, motors, fan, electric doors / windows, aircraft, remote cars, remote toys, rolling blinds, pumps, winches, or other electrical devices with voltage AC110~240V or DC0~28V.

Let’s see the procedure. We have Wi-Fi controller, DC LED lamp, iPod, power adaptor.

Wire lamp to OUTPUT 1 and supply power to receiver. Lamp will get power through receiver.

After switching on power, wait until power led, ready led and link led turn on. So the Wi-Fi network is connected. After wireless network connection, press the icon of WIFI Controller software installed in advance to turn on it.

Set up working mode for each channel of relay. Four working modes Toggle, Momentary, Latching and Time Delay are provided.

Set up Toggle control mode: Press the “T” icon of any channel. Choose T (Toggle) control mode.

Press the icon and the color of icon changes to green, the corresponding relay will be on. Lamp is on.

Press the icon again, the relay will be off. Lamp is off.

Set up Time Delay control mode: Press “0s” icon of any channel. Enter the delay time, then press “Ok” icon. The adjustable delay time is range from 1 second to 99 hours. For example, if you want 5 seconds delay time, you can set 5 (s).

Press the icon, lamp is on.

After 5 seconds, the lamp will be off automatically.
