How To Long Range Remote Control Two Buttons On A USB Computer Game Controller?

Question from a customer:

Hi, I am looking for a 2 channel long range remote system, here is my plan. I am going to solder the receiver to a USB computer game controller, so that by pressing either button on the transmitter, it presses buttons on the controller. However, I want to be able to do this from about 200m away (on and open field outside). Do you any product that might work for this?

Answer:

We recommend the wireless remote control kit for you. It is model 0020213 (S2U-DC12-ANT2 & CB-2). It includes one receiver S2U-DC12-ANT2 and one remote control CB-2.

The receiver S2U-DC12-ANT2 has 2 relays output. And it has three different work mode: Toggle, Momentary and Latched, we set the receiver to momentary work mode for this application.

You can use this remote control CB-2 to control these 2 relays output within 2000m/6000ft theoretically. For each relay output in the receiver, the terminal A and B is normally closed; and the terminal B and C is normally open. When you press and hold one button on the remote control CB-2, it will connect the terminals B and C of one relay output. And when you release this button on the remote control CB-2, it will disconnect the terminals B and C of one relay output. So we can use the terminals B and C to control the buttons on the USB Computer Game Controller.

Here is the circuit diagram of the receiver S2U-DC12-ANT2. First we connect the button on the USB computer game controller to the receiver‘s terminal B and C by two wires, and supply the power (DC 12V) to the receiver, then you can press two buttons of remote control CB-2 to control two buttons on computer game controller. Of course, you can also directly press these two buttons on computer game controller for control your computer game.
