Hobby Project Motors Remote Controlling

Overview:

I want to control 6 different small electric DC motors for a hobby project.

Solution:

This 12 channel dc remote controller (S12CA-DC12+CV-12) can help you controls 6 dc motors’ positive and reverse rotation. The receiver works with a 12-button remote transmitter. It only can be used to control 6 motors for every two relays in the receiver can control one motor to rotate in forward and reverse other than controlling at most 12 same or different off/on electric devices. Remote distance is up to 500m.

12-channel-remote-control

Look at the following wiring diagram and picture. The wiring is just a little complicated. B is common contact. Each motor should be connected to B terminals of every two relays. A is normally closed contact and C is normally open contact. Connect contact C to the positive and connect contact A to the negative. We connect motors one by one.

S12CA-DC&CV-12 Wiring

Operation:

There are more than one working modes of that controller. Generally speaking, you will choose the momentary mode for motor controlling.

Learning Momentary control mode: When the receiver is in the status of LEARNING, press button 2 of the remote control.

Control mode Momentary (Channel 1~12): Press and hold -> On; Release -> Off.

Controlling motors at random just for an example from following demonstration:

If you want you control Motor 4:

Press and hold button 7, motor rotates in positive direction; Release button 7, motor 4 stops. Press and hold button 8, motor rotates in reverse direction; Release button 8, motor 4 stops.

12V Motors Run Forward and Reverse through High amp Load Motor Controlling Kit

Overview:

“I want a remote control receiver to control two motors walking a distance of 100 meters without obstacles. The remote control has a receiver to turn two 12V motors. For each motor I want to control forward and reverse.

The operation shall be as follows:

When I press the button, the motor runs. When I release the button, the motor stops. This also applies to the reverse. Please advise me that you?”

Solution:

We recommend high amp load motor controlling kit (S2PF-DC12&CV-6-2) to you. This controller is specially designed for controlling DC motors of rolling blinds / doors, projection screens, awnings, pumps, winches, conveyors or other appliances and mechanicals with voltage DC12V/24V. With two kinds of voltage direct output, it is applied to DC 12/24V electric appliances. Transmitting distance is 500m/1500ft (theoretically).

Wiring and Operation are fairly easy.

You can connect contact terminals “A1” and “A2” to motor 1; Then you can connect contact terminals “B1” and “B2” to motor 2. Connect contact terminals “+” and “—” to power supply DC 12V or 24V;

As you described, you can choose “Momentary Mode” for your motors’ operation. Press button, motor runs; release button, motor stops.

Setting control mode Momentary: Only connect Jumper-1 (CN1)

Press and hold button ▲ on the left:  Motor 1 rotates in positive direction

Release button ▲ on the left:  Motor 1 stops

Press and hold button▼ on the left:  Motor 1 rotates in reversal direction

Release button ▼ on the left:  Motor 1 stops

Press and hold button ▲ on the right:  Motor 2 rotates in positive direction

Release button▲ on the right:  Motor 2 stops

Press and hold button▼ on the right:  Motor 2 rotates in reversal direction

Release button ▼ on the right:  Motor 2 stops

2000m Tri-mode Motor Remote Controller for Skylight

Skylights are widely used in designing for residential, public, and commercial buildings. Increased day lighting can result in less electric lighting use and saving energy, lowering costs and reducing environmental pollution. Skylight can offer you beautiful view from roof. At night, you can also watch stars from skylight when you stay in bed. Maybe it is not convenient to you to open and close skylight manually. So you may want to remote control it.

Tri-mode motor remote controller with 3-button transmitter can be used in dc motor of skylight application. Applications also include light remote control, electric gate remote control, electric window / blind remote control, etc. It is added an external extended antenna, which makes its transmitting distance reach 2000m.

1 Channel RF Motor Remote Controller for Motor of Garage Door

Question from customer:

I have a garage door with a motor connected. I don’t have a control board or remotes for it. So I was looking at the RF models. The motor I have is a standard 12v garage roller door opener.

Answer:

This DC RF Motor Remote Controller features in forward-reverse-stop capability. You can rotate the motor in positive or reversal direction by transmitter from any place within a reliable distance, wireless signal pass through walls, floors and doors. With time delay function, the working time of positive/reversal rotation can be adjusted from 10 to 60 seconds. Besides ordinary functions, this motor controller has limit switch which can be activated to stop motor rotation automatically when the rotation is overdone.

Wiring and operation:

Connect power supply DC 12V to the terminals “IN”. Connect DC motor to the “OUT”. You can exchange the output wires of motor to change the rotating direction of motor.

1_03

Press button ▲: Light 1 shines, motor rotates in the positive direction, and it will stop after a certain delay time.

Press button ▼: Light 2 shines, motor rotates in the reversal direction, and it will stop after a certain delay time.

The delay time of positive / reversal rotation can be adjusted from 10 to 60 seconds. Turn R1/R2 clockwise, prolong the delay time. Turn R1/R2 anti-clockwise, shorten the delay time. When you press button ▲ or button ▼, the motor starts to rotate; It will stop after the delay time is expired.

After press button ▲, you must press button ■ to stop motor firstly, and then press button ▼.

If you pull out the Jumper of the receiver, you can press directly button ▼ after press button ▲.

It is also suitable for the motors of rolling blinds, projection screens, awnings, pumps, winches, conveyors or other appliances and machineries with voltage DC12V.

How to Remote Control Two Gates Open and Close

Question from customer:

I am looking for a transmitter and receiver with at least 3 buttons (4 max ) to be used to open and close my gate. I don’t know which is better RF or UHF? Do you have anything that can work for me? I will do the electronics all I need is the option to latch or momentary relay outputs.

Answer

We recommend 4 channel 12V multi-mode remote controller (S4C-DC12+C-4). It operates in toggle, momentary, latched and toggle + momentary control mode (set the mode as you like freely). You can use it to complete four operations at the same time. For example, turn the light on, open the door or control other dc/ac electrical devices in the meantime. It is applied for light remote control, motor remote control, garage door remote control, gate remote control, etc. We think this remote can be used for controlling gate. That is to say, you can use this remote control to control one or two motors of your gate. To realize gate opening and closing, one motor needs two relays to support.

1_03

Secondly, it is the wiring. Suppose you have two gates to remote control. We will wire motors to receiver according to the wiring diagram. B is the common terminal. A is the closed terminal and C is the open terminal. Usually, one relay can only switch on and off one motor. So each two relays can control one motor rotate in positive and reverse direction. We connect two motors to B terminals to every two relays respectively. Connect terminal C to the positive and connect terminal A to the negative.

application circuit

We choose momentary working mode: only connect Jumper-1. (We usually use momentary mode for motor controlling. Or you can also choose latched mode if you want.)

Press and hold button 1, motor 1 rotates in positive direction, gate 1 is opening. Release button 1, motor 1 stops.

Press and hold button 2, motor 1 rotates in reverse direction, gate 1 is closing. Release button 2, motor 1 stops.

Press and hold button 3, motor 2 rotates in positive direction, gate 2 is opening. Release button 3, motor 3 stops.

Press and hold button 4, motor 2 rotates in reverse direction, gate 2 is closing. Release button 4, motor 2stops.
