- Page 3 User Manual English Introduction Thank you for purchasing this RF controlled Raspberry Pi starter kit. Using this RF transmitter add on board, you can control up to 4 radio controlled sockets from your Raspberry Pi. The add-on board connects to the row of pins called the GPIO which can be controlled as either input or output lines under the control of software.
- Page 4 User Manual English The pin header connects to the add-on board as follows to allow you to control the GPIO lines as outputs to drive the radio frequency transmitter. Your software will use the outputs on the GPIO connector to drive the add-on board. We have written some code in Python to switch the two sockets on and off.
- Page 5 User Manual English The PCB can therefore control a maximum of 4 radio sockets independently. However, more than one socket may be controlled by the same control code. There are two parts to the transmitter board, the encoder and the modulator: 1) The encoder will accept 4 input signal levels programmed onto 4 of the GPIO lines (D0-D3) as shown above.
