This was super helpful. I want to use my antique doorbell with a wireless transmitter where the receiver actuates a push-pull solenoid. I'd love to see a video on how to wire a push button to the transmitter to send the rf signal when the push button is pushed.
I would to use a similar relay circuit for a remote control project. I like to report when a remote switch is open or close. Do you have any thoughts if it would be feasible to modify the push button RF transmitter circuit to accept a low voltage signal or open/close state of my remote switch?
Joe Berg I am not sure of how you could transmit back the status of the switch. Hmmm... does anyone have any ideas? By the way thanks for the question and thanks for watching!!
Yes Joe if you use the relay in its momentary mode, the signal will remain high while triggered, and go low when the switch changes state. This will take care of the open/close state. To trigger the remote, you would have to replicate the momentary switch on the remote with your system. You could potentially trace the switch connection on the circuit board to see where the signal is sent, I haven't done it, but it is feasible. Anyway I hope this was helpful. .Thank you for taking the time to watch the video !!!
@ Joe Berg the gate should have limit switches to stop the actuator motors at the end of travel, you could connect them to a transmitter set to different freq. to transmit an open or closed signal with lights indicating as such. but this would be a stand-alone unit, not attached to your remote control.
Hi, great video, I have a problem, when I press button on transmitter I see red light on transmitter but no red light on receiver. Is there a way to for binding. I have exactly same version with one button. Thank you.
Jakub Hoblík make sure the antenna is fully extended. Also, I have observed that it can be intermittent or not working if you are too close. Extend the antenna, and try transmitting to it from 20-30 feet away. Let me know how it goes. Thank you for watching and thanks for the question.
@ Jakub Hoblik Is the receiver working when you press the transmitter button? Most receivers that have a light are for programming only and not for everyday operation.
Do you have the power wired up to a separate power supply? I was wondering if just with the connection from the wall to the light bulb you could power and switch? Or do you always need one circuit powering the switch and then the separate light circuit?
Hey Paul, can you enlighten as to what a wet circuit is. You explained that you can jump the common lead with the input positive DC supply voltage and I’m curious what happens with the other leads, nc and no on the other side? I believe that this is input /output being the same DC12-30VDC but clarification would be greatly appreciated. Bless you and your efforts and merry Christmas
Using a 2 channel to control a 12v dc motor ( reversing direction ) and adding a manual switch would I have to install diodes in all the motor circuits? Thanks

How do I modify a 12V 433MHz wireless remote control switch relay receiver and transmitter? Someone in the area (neighbor) is using the same frequency.
Nice, accidentally i found nice explanation video about that kind of switch :D but i have a problem with mine. it works great when i plug it solo or with 12v pc fan, but as soon as i connect my 12v on-demand water pump to it i clicks and turns off my solar controllers output for a moment. pump needs 5a fuse, im using 7.5a between switch and controllers positive. pump works fine when connected directly to 12v 20ah battery. any ideas why it behaves like that?
I’m not sure. I would have to see a sketch of how it is wired. Does the pump have its own independent power supply? It’s possible the current it too much for the on board relay
@@ehobbyguy8980 it's something like this puu.sh/Jofhe/d0a715a46c.png wires are connected with wago connector, i tried to switch to 5A fuse, tried to use it on COM- pump + line, didn't work.
Funny I bought one for the same reason it save the plate amplifier life over time. radio shack switch lasted 15 year wish I had bought two . hahaha 👍👌✌️💯🥂🇺🇸
@ Josh Orrison it may just need to be programmed. before sending it back, go on lin and ask for a tutorial for programming the remote. after you try this and it still does not work then send it back. Programming only takes a minute to do. Is super easy. This could save you time and money.
I have the same one. Mine randomly comes on and goes off by itself. I feel bad for the next door neighbor I'm probably turning stuff at his house on and off is there a way to shorten the distance.?
@ tony Torkelson All you have to do is change the code of your remote so that it is not the same code as your neighbor. look for a tutorial on changing the code. it will show you how to do it.
I tried this thing and it would turn on randomly and drianed my battery. I was just using it on a dc to dc charger control wire. Driveing around it would randomly turn on even with remote battery removed.
K Rie I don’t think it could be run by a 9v battery. At least not the one I have. There may be a 9V version that I am not aware of. The on board relay is a 12V relay, so I just don’t think 9V would be enough. I hope this was helpful. Thanks for watching!
@ K Rie take a look at this tutorial and tell me what you think about it? ( Remote control switches for Lights and Fans | Wireless Remote Control Switch | Buy Amezon ) ( i don't know if it came out right, try clicking on the frase--rem con sw. if nothing happens type it in & hit ENTER.
@ K Rie I don't if you seen what I WAS REFERRING TO, but I was watching a tutorial about switch programming and the guy was using a 9v battery on a 12v remote.
You talked too fast when explaining options NO1, COM, NC1. I know no1 means normally open, and nc1 means normally closed1. What is com? What does the common wire have to connect to for my remote control to work? Mine is different than yours but similar enough that you could answer my question.
@ C M 4 Com is the input connection for NO1 and NC1. If you controlling something with a/c--you connect the a/c line wire to comm. If you are controlling something with D/C--you connect the hot d/c wire to comm. When you activate the remote control no1 or nc1 route the power to do the work.
Next time you make a tutorial, don't give everybody a lot of hogwash about the case, the case was made that way so that you would have to make holes for the wires. Why? so that there would not be any more holes then what you require. Why again, because sometimes these remote receivers need to be used outdoors for maybe a pole light, this is not for waterproofing, this is for ant proofing as ants like to get inside stuff like this and ants would destroy it by grounding it out with their bodies.
