|
||||
Module to generate series of impulses for remote control via 433/315Mhz radio transmitter.
|
||||
Superseded by **[rfswitch](./rfswitch.md)** module which have same functionality, and supports more transmission protocols.
|
||||
|
||||
For more detailed description see [rfswitch module documentation](./rfswitch.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## rc.send()
|
||||
Sends series of impulses
|
||||
|
||||
#### Syntax
|
||||
`rc.send(pin, value, length, pulse_length, protocol_id, repeat)`
|
||||
|
||||
which is similar to:
|
||||
`rfswitch.send(protocol_id, pulse_length, repeat, pin, value, length)`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Parameters
|
||||
- `pin` 0~12, I/O index of pin, example 6 is for GPIO12, see [details](../modules/gpio/)
|
||||
- `value` positive integer value, this is the primary data which will be sent
|
||||
- `length` bit length of value, if value length is 3 bytes, then length is 24
|
||||
- `pulse_length` length of one pulse in microseconds, usually from 100 to 650
|
||||
- `protocol_id` positive integer value, from 1-3
|
||||
- `repeat` repeat value, usually from 1 to 5. This is a synchronous task. Setting the repeat count to a large value will cause problems.
|
||||
The recommended limit is about 1-4.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Returns
|
||||
`1` always 1
|
||||
|
||||
#### Example
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
-- Lua transmit radio code using protocol #1
|
||||
-- pulse_length 300 microseconds
|
||||
-- repeat 5 times
|
||||
-- use pin #7 (GPIO13)
|
||||
-- value to send is 560777
|
||||
-- value length is 24 bits (3 bytes)
|
||||
rc.send(7, 560777, 24, 300, 1, 5)
|
||||
```
|
||||
which is similar to:
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
rfswitch.send(1, 300, 5, 7, 560777, 24)
|
||||
```
