IR CONTROL
Control the forward and reverse motion of any motor connected to
one of the four output ports using the Remote Infrared Beacon as
remote control and the Infrared Sensor as receiver (the Infrared
Sensor must be connected to Port 4 in the EV3 Brick). There are
two different modes. In one mode, you will be using Channels 1 and
2 on the Remote Infrared Beacon. On Channel 1, you will be able to
control motors connected to Port B (using Buttons 1 and 2 on the
Remote Infrared Beacon) and to Port C (using Buttons 3 and 4 on
the Remote infrared Beacon). On Channel 2, you will be able to
control motors connected to Port A (using Buttons 1 and 2) and to
Port D (using Buttons 3 and 4). In the other mode, you can control
your motors in the exact same way by using Channels 3 and 4 on
the Remote Infrared Beacon instead. Use the Centre button to
toggle between the two modes. Press the Back button to get back
to the Brick Apps main screen.
