Hi, this is my first time posting on here and I just wanted to say that i'm not just looking for the solution as I am still learning what the heck I am attempting to accomplish here. Having said that I just recently purchased a Holtek HT12A/HT12D encoder decoder so I can remote control 4 momentary switches on a device. Each of the 4 switches (noted in BLUE on the receiver schematic) on the device I am attempting to control has one GND wire and the SIGNAL wire has an internal pull-up resistor at 5V. The mode of operation of the device I want to control has 4 momentary switches 5V at rest and when you press a button, it pulls the 5V down to ground via the other gnd wire and when released, returns back to 5V. Simple enough so I bought a 4 channel infrared remote control module and here is a schematic for the transmitter and receiver.
Receiver - **broken link removed**
Transmitter - **broken link removed**
I used a dremel cut off wheel to remove the entire relay portion of the receiver PCB as they will not be used and saves space inside the device. The data pins D8-D11 are normally logic 1 (5V) but when a button is momentarily pressed the corresponding data pin is logic 0 (0v) then resumes back to logic 1 (5V) as the button is released. How do I tie the switch 5v signal wire to the other switch gnd momentarily then resume back to 5 volts?
