The CMD-HHLR-*** Long-Range Handheld transmitter combines the LR Series
transmitter and an antenna with an on-board Holtek HT640 encoder IC to form a
simple, yet highly reliable, RF remote-control transmitter. The LR Series
transmitter is a low-cost, high-performance synthesized ASK / OOK transmitter.
The transmitter’s synthesized architecture delivers outstanding stability and
frequency accuracy, while minimizing the effects of antenna port loading and
mismatching. This reduces or eliminates frequency pulling, bit contraction, and
other negative effects that are common to SAW-based transmitter architectures,
providing a significantly higher level of performance and reliability.
When a button is pressed on the transmitter, power is applied to the internal
circuitry and the encoder IC is enabled. The encoder detects the logic states of
the address lines and button data lines. These states are formatted into a three-
word transmission cycle that continues until the button is released. The encoder
data is used to modulate the transmitter, which, through the antenna, conveys
the data into free space. On the receiver side, a decoder IC or custom
microcontroller is used to check the transmitter’s address bits against the
address settings of the receiving device. If a match is confirmed, the decoder’s
outputs are set to replicate the transmitter’s button states. These outputs can
then be used to activate external circuitry required by the application.
The transmitter is compatible with several Linx receiver products, including the
LR, KH2, LT, and OEM product families. For applications where range is critical,
the LR Series receiver is the best choice due to its outstanding sensitivity. When
the transmitter is combined with an LR Series receiver and the HT658 decoder
chip, ranges of up to 1,000 feet are possible. Applications operating over shorter
distances will also benefit from the increased link reliability and superior noise
immunity provided by the LR Series receiver.

SETTING THE TRANSMITTER ADDRESS
CMD-HHLR BUTTON ASSIGNMENTS
Figure 3: CMD-HHLR-*** Button Assignments
The Long-Range Handheld transmitter
allows the selection of one of 1,024
unique addresses. All transmitters are
supplied set to the same address. To
avoid contention with other units or to
create unique relationships, the address
can be changed. This is accomplished
using internal DIP switches as shown.
The switches are accessed by removing
the DIP switch access cover on the back
of the transmitter.
If the switch is on, the address line is
connected to ground, otherwise it is
floating. The receiver’s address must match exactly in order for the units to
communicate. Application Note AN-00300 describes in detail how to set the
address to match any of the receivers offered by Linx. This note can be found in
the Support section of the Linx web site, www.linxtechnologies.com.
This diagram illustrates the relationship between the button locations and
encoder data lines.
