HI,
Im new to this forum,
sorry for bad language hope you can get it anyway
I would like to hear if you have any ideas on how I can control a motor using relays. Automotive relays?
The function i looking after is:
I have a platform that goes on a rail, in each side i have a limit,
in one side i have mounted a 12v dc motor and a Wheel, and in the opposite side a Wheel, i have stretched a wire between those Wheels
who is attached to the platform,
i have ha momentary startbutton.
the limits have COM,NO,NC
i got a 12v timer.
If i press the start button i want the platform to start and when it hits the limit in the end it will stop and start a timer who goes for 3-4 seconds and then return, when the platform hits the other limit i want it to stop, until you press the start button again, then let it do the same again
I attached a Quick drawing if it will help.
Thanks for ideas/Micke
