My question is simple... How do I do that? The answer isn't. Most commerical products that have infra red remote controlled volume (and other voltage-controlled parameters) use digitally controlled attenuators rather than motor-driven pots. The place to look for remote controlled motor drives is probably a robotics newsgroup or web site. -- I'm really Mike Rivers ) However, until the spam goes away or Hell freezes over, lots of IP addresses are blocked from this system.

Connect it to a servo or even a reversable DC motor, gear the motor down to the pot, and you're good to go. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis." |

How do I do that? I've already chosen the potentiometer, what do I need now? A servo control? And what about the infrared control and reciever? Do you have any idea about some newsgroup I colud ask in? Thank You There have been a couple of those published in electronics mags in Aust. Check www.siliconchip.com.au, though the older one may have been published by Electronics Australia (which you'll also find archived at that site). If you already have the motor driven pot then you just need a remote control, and add the driver circuitry, but if you want a kit, possible suppliers a www.oatleyelectronics.com www.jaycar.com.au A fairly recent one was an infra-red driven job. I built an older uhf type device and added it into my loungeroom amp. Noel Bachelor noelbachelorAT(From:_domain) Language Recordings Inc (Darwin Australia) |
