This time I’ll show how I used an Arduino to control a relay module with eight channels. Arduino in offers several advantages such as: – Open source; – Easy programming; – You can assemble your own board; – Is supported on various forums on the Internet; – Has several “shields” (facilitates the use of it …
I wrote this one hot week in July 2010. I’ve been leaving my front door ajar, to get some air through the house. Probably not a very good idea. So I thought I’d hook up an Arduino to ensure that no one takes advantage of the door being unlocked. This essay isn’t meant, primarily, to …
In this Arduino project, you will build a small relay shield from stripboard. The shield can have one or two relays fitted to it. Connect the Arduino and relay shield to your PC via a USB cable. Download the PC software and use it to switch anything on and off that is attached to the …
If you have ever wanted to control high voltages/currents with an Arduino, setup up a complicated light timer, or even have Siri turn on a Lamp. Then this is an instructable for you! In this instructable in a few simple steps we will build a self-powered smart relay (Arduino style) power box. This box will allow …
In this quick Arduino tutorial I will explain how you can control a relay using the Arduino Board, one 1K and one 10K resistors, 1 BC547 transistor, one 6V or 12V relay, one 1N4007 diode and a 12V fan. When the button is pressed the fan will turn ON and will remain in this state …
To connect a 12V relay to the Arduino you need the following things: – 1 Arduino – 1 diode for example 1N4007 – 1 NPN transistor for example 2N2222 (in the US) or BC548 (in Europe) – 1 relay for example one with coil voltage 12V and switching voltage 125VAC/10 A – 1 multimeter Step …
