I have a project where I need to send a wireless signal to one of several receivers to turn on an LED.
One transmitter, several (many) receivers, each with an LED. The receivers need to have low power consumption.
Transmitter side:
- Raspberry pi
- HT12E encoder
- 433 mhz transmitter
Receiver side:
- 433 mhz receiver
- HT12D decoder
Each individual receiver would have a unique, fixed address.
I was hoping I could use the raspberry pi to dynamically set the address of the encoder to match the relevant receiver, but I cannot figure out if this is possible. The address of the HT12 is adjusted by connecting Ax pins to ground. Can I do this with
Is there a better alternative to this? Can I use the Raspberry to simulate the signal from the encoder? The system must be possible because it is similar to restaurant pagers
This is how I am envisioning it now. Am I understanding correct? Do the address on the transmitter side match with the address on the receiver side?
EDIT: Added sketch of wiring.
