Introduction
Crash sensor, also known as snap-action switch, is an electric switch that is actuated by very little physical force.
It is a digital on-off input module necessary for elementary electronic.
By programming, it can be used for the light, sound device, key function of LCD display, 3D Printer position feedback, or other devices.
This sensor needs to be used together with EASY plug control board.
Special Note:
The sensor/module is equiped with the RJ11 6P6C interface, compatible with our keyestudio EASY plug Control Board with RJ11 6P6C interface.
If you have the control board of other brands, it is also equiped with the RJ11 6P6C interface but have different internal line sequence, can not be used compatibly with our sensor/module.
Specification
- Connector: Easy plug
- Onboard status indicator LED
- M3 mounting hole, convenient for fixation on other devices.
- If collision happened, outputs LOW level signal; no collision, outputs HIGH level signal.
Technical Details
- Dimensions: 44mm*20mm*18mm
- Weight: 5.5g
Connect It Up
Connect the EASY Plug Crash sensor and LED module to control board using RJ11 cable.
Upload the Code
Below is an example code. Open or drag below code to Mixly Blocks and upload.
What You Should See
When an object crashes the metal switch of the sensor, the LED is turned off. If no crash happened, LED is turned on.
You should be able to see the value printing on the monitor.
Extension Experiment
Switch Controlling Relay
Hookup Guide
Connect the EASY Plug Crash sensor and relay module to control board using an RJ11 cable.
Upload the Code
Below is an example code.
What You Should See
If crash the limit switch, the LED on the relay module is turned on.
Troubleshooting:
- Program Not Uploading?
This happens sometimes, the most likely case is a confused Board and serial port, you should firstly select your proper board and port.
If it doesn’t, make sure you have assembled the circuit correctly and verified and uploaded the code to your board.
