[0044] figure 2 Is the circuit diagram of the first microcontroller of the transmitter, image 3 The circuit diagram of the first radio frequency chip of the transmitter; the reed switch S1 is used to detect the state of the magnetic key 2. When the magnetic key 2 is removed, the reed switch S1 is in an open state, and the second pin of the first microcontroller 3 is The pull-up resistor R14 is in a high level state. At this time, the transmitter enters an emergency stop state. Even if any key of the 8-way buttons is pressed, data will not be transmitted. In this embodiment, the radio frequency chip CC1101 works in the 315MHZ frequency band, and its circuit adopts the typical application circuit in the CC1101 chip data manual provided by TI.
[0045] Further, the transmitter of this embodiment further includes a transmitter power supply 11, the transmitter power supply 11 is two AA batteries, the voltage of the transmitter power supply 11 is 3V, and the transmitter power supply 11 supplies power to the first microcontroller 3. Because the normal operating voltage range of the microcontroller MSP430G2553 and the radio frequency transceiver chip CC1101 are both 1.8V to 3.6V. Therefore, the transmitter power supply 11 can ensure that the microcontroller MSP430G2553 and the RF transceiver chip CC1101 work normally under low power supply voltage, reduce system power consumption, extend the life of the transmitter battery as much as possible, and achieve low power consumption design from the hardware aspect aims.

[0050] The learning process of the receiver and transmitter in this embodiment is as follows:
[0051] The learning process of the receiver is:

[0060] The software program is written with the design idea of ​​ultra-low power consumption, which makes full use of the advantages of MSP430G2553 MCU in terms of ultra-low power consumption. In terms of current consumption, it is lower than similar remote controls, more energy-saving, and effectively extends the use of batteries in the remote control. life.
[0061] 1. The main program flowchart of the transmitter is as follows Figure 8 As shown, the flow chart of the SN code and CH code learning subroutine is as follows Picture 9 Shown. The detection of button closure is handled in the port interrupt program. When the button is pressed by the user, the button changes from the open state to the closed state, and the corresponding microprocessor port generates a falling edge transition to cause the port interrupt to be generated. The port interrupt wakes up the micro control In response to the port interrupt, the microcontroller executes the port interrupt program, recognizes the closed button in the port interrupt program, and performs corresponding functions (mainly assigning corresponding values ​​to the sending buffer).
[0062] In order to prevent mutual interference between multiple remote controls, a four-byte SN code is set in the transmitted data packet, and the SN code of the remote control that is shipped from the factory is guaranteed to be unique. In addition, in order to achieve simultaneous operation of multiple remote controllers without mutual interference in the same working area, frequency division multiple access technology is adopted, and the difference in CH code (ie channel code) is used to change the receiving and sending frequency of the radio frequency chip CC1101.
[0063] In the above software design:
[0064] (1) The length of the transmitted data packet is 8 bytes, the length of the SN code is 4 bytes, and the remaining 4 bytes are used for remote control function coding.
[0065] (2) When the interlock keys are closed at the same time, the interlock code "0x99" is sent, and the corresponding two relays are cut off at the same time.
[0066] Second, the main program flowchart of the receiver is as follows Picture 10 Shown. The flowchart of the SN code and CH code learning subprogram of the industrial remote control receiver software is similar to the flowchart of the SN code and CH code learning subprogram of the industrial remote control transmitter software.
[0067] The invention adopts software radio technology, and both the industrial remote control transmitter and the industrial remote control receiver have a pairing learning function. There is a DIP switch on the main board of the industrial remote control receiver. If you need to pair the industrial remote control transmitter with the industrial remote control receiver, just turn the DIP switch to the ON position and power on the industrial remote control receiver to enter the pairing In the learning state, the industrial remote control receiver scans and searches for the pairing instructions issued by the industrial remote control transmitter in the entire working frequency band; presses the specific combination key of the industrial remote control transmitter to make it transmit the pairing instruction; the industrial remote control receiver performs after receiving the pairing instruction Decoding process, memorize the SN code (identity identification code, unique) and CH code of the industrial remote control transmitter, thus completing the pairing function. Turn the DIP switch of the industrial remote control receiver to the OFF position and power on the industrial remote control receiver again, the industrial remote control enters the normal working state.
[0068] The writing of the software program adopts the design idea of ​​ultra-low power consumption, and makes full use of the advantages of MSP430G2553 microcontroller in terms of ultra-low power consumption. In order to prevent mutual interference between multiple remote controls, a four-byte SN code is set in the transmitted data packet, and the SN code of the remote control that is shipped from the factory is guaranteed to be unique. In addition, in order to achieve simultaneous operation of multiple remote controllers without mutual interference in the same working area, frequency division multiple access technology is adopted, and the difference in CH code (ie channel code) is used to change the receiving and sending frequency of the radio frequency chip CC1101.
[0069] Three, test results
[0070] After many tests, it is found that when the transmission data rate of CC1101 is set to about 38K, the GFSK modulation method is adopted and FEC is turned on. The best remote control effect can be obtained under the condition of low current consumption. The measured performance indicators of the prototype are all Meet the actual requirements of the industrial site.
