Infrared IR Transmitter & Receiver Module Set 
with Selectable 8-bit Address 

This listing is for an assembled  infrared (IR) transmitter and receiver set.  The first video below shows you a demonstration of how to use both the transmitter and the receiver boards.   The other two videos are assembly videos, which are used for our DIY kit version of this listing.  We sell these also in unassembled DIY electronics kit form for a few dollars less.  You really get a bang for your buck!  Whether you guy these in kit form or in assembled form, the transmitter and receive comes in two separate sealed ESD protective bags.  

Both of the boards require 5v to operate.  Now, here is the neat part!  The is an 8-switch DIP switch on both the transmitter and receiver board.  These 8 switches must be in the same configuration for the transmitter to properly communicate with the receiver board.  Like your TV remote control, the transmitter sends a signal modulated at roughly 38kHz.  The signal has the 8-bit address and the instruction data (encoded).  This information is decoded at the receiver through the decoder chip.  Based on the setting of the DIP switches, the encoded address must match the address configured at the receiver, or else they will not communicate, and the receiver will ignore the commands coming from the transmitter.  Watch the demonstration video.  You can use the four on-board relays to activate and deactivate 120VAC devices such as lamps, and motors.  

The transmitter board length is 6cm.  The transmitter board width is 4.7cm.  The height (when assembled) is roughly 1.8cm.  The transmitter board is unregulated.  It requires between 4.6v and 5.1v to operate properly.  A power connector is included.  There is also an on off switch, and four transmit buttons.

The receiver board length is 8.7cm.  The receiver board width is 8.4cm.  The height (when assembled) is roughly 1.9cm.  The receiver board is unregulated.  It requires between 4.6v and 5.1v to operate properly.  A power connector is included.  There are four on-board relays that can be controlled by the transmitter.  See the video.
After watching the video, if you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to ask!
