Hi,
I have two sets of led arrays. I would like to be able to turn these arrays on/off from a remote location. So I guess that I will be needing a set of transmitter/receiver for the control unit, and then 2 other receivers for the led arrays. I am thinking of using a PIC microprocessor for the control. Do I also need a PIC for the receiving sides? I am new at this rf stuff!!!!
Someone suggested me to use Laipac's rpl434a and tlp434a as the rf modules, because they are cheap. Does anyone have experience with them? Are they reliable in outdoor environments? If you have some sort of sample C or ASM code, it would help me a lot...
Also, how will I be able to differentiate which of the 2 receivers that the control unit wants to talk to?
