L.S.

I am looking for a remote control (receiver/ controlboard) kit to control the 4:1 spdif mux board (as input selection ).
The remote receiver has to be of the learning type.
Any suggestions?

Something like this will probably work: http://www.tauntek.com/t...ote-control-receiver.htm

Configure the outputs to toggle, and connect to the 0 and 1 pins of the MUX.

NOTE: I have not tried this, just did a quick search and found it.

Kurt,

Iknowvations has offered to develop a board. I have to order 5 at once.
If you are interested, let me know soon and I will post the specs / requirements and the price
they quoted.

Kurt,

this is what I ordered (see below). I had to order 5 pcs at once and am willing to sell 4, 3 or 2 pc (at once)

A control board that can receive 12 IR signals (S0 to S11): 

S0 gives the digital word  000 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form) 
S1 gives the digital word  001 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form)
S2 gives the digital word  010 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form) 
S3 gives the digital word  011 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form) 
S4 gives the digital word  100 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form) 
S5 gives the digital word  101 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form)
S6 gives the digital word  110 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form)
S7 gives the digital word  111 on the three output control lines of the control board (in 3.3V / 0V form) 
S8 is the Vol Up signal and controls two pots (up)
S9 is the Vol Down signal and controls the two pots (down)
S10 is the Channel Up signal and steps the control board through the words 000 to 111 on the three output control lines (one word every one or two seconds or so) 
S11 is the Channel Down signal and steps the control board through the words 111 to 000 on the three output control lines (one word every one or two seconds or so)

When the IR signal (S0 or S1 or S2 etc.) disappears (is switched off) the three output control lines should retain the last word they carried until a new IR signal is received (so: “switch and hold” on receiving an IR signal)

Add 8 blue LED’s (same colour, same brightness), connected to the board with (separate) flexible wires of at least 15 cm long. There has to be always one (and no more) of the leds on to indicate which word is on the control lines (different word, different led). All LED’s are off when the power is totally off.




The two pots have to be linear stereo 5 k or 10k pots. Each pot should be
always in the same position as the other one (together they should
form a 4 channel pot). Please inform me what you will use (5k’s or 10k’s)

Digital pots on the control board are  OK. They 
1) should have at least 100 discrete resistive steps (resistance should be “sensed” over the pot) 
2) the position of the pot should be remembered, also when power is completely off.
3) there will be 3V to 5V DC over each pot-section. The pots should be able to handle these voltages and the resulting currents

The receiver board should be “learning”: able to learn S0 to S11 from real IR signals. The board has to be able to learn most, not all, types of IR signals.
