Key Features
- Ideal for applications in which you have two possible control sources and want to be able to switch between them on the fly
- Measures the width of incoming RC pulses on the channel labeled SEL and compares it to a user-configurable threshold (with ±64 μs of hysteresis)
- Learning mode allows you to change the threshold and activation direction
- Ships with the headers pins soldered in to every through-hole except the extra slave power connection pins
- Considers the RC signal on the SEL channel to be valid if it has a 10–330 Hz pulse rate and 0.5–2.5 ms pulse width
The Pololu 4-Channel RC Servo Multiplexer can be used with standard hobby radio control systems and servo controllers to allow easy switching of servo control between two independent sources using a separate auxiliary channel as the input selector. This makes it ideal for applications in which you have two possible control sources and want to be able to switch between them on the fly. For example, you could connect two RC receivers to the same set of servos or electronic speed controls (ESCs) and allow the master transmitter to decide whether the master or slave transmitter is in control, thereby setting up your own buddy-system training setup. Another possible application would involve multiplexing between an RC receiver and a servo controller, which would allow you to switch between autonomous and manual control of a set of servos.
