Yup, sich mistakenly thought everyone have the options to upload attachment. Anyway he has change the setting, "now everyone can attach" :lol:

From the schematic, you only need to control the On/Off switch to activate the transmitter. Wanted to control using computer? If you have parallel port it will be quite easy.

But I think most of the desktop and laptop does not come with parallel port, Using USB to UART converter can help too as you need one output only. I think you should be able to control the RTS/CTS to activate a transistor to ON/OFF the ultrasonic circuit.

hmmm. . . . yup that's what I want hehe, parallel, USB, or UART doesn't matter
as long as I can control them using my computer
do u have the circuit for it?

thanks a lot :)

thanks, this one is interesting as I've always think that we need a microcontroller to interface

oh, one more think
do u guys know where to get diode 1SS106 in Malaysia? or the replacement
I couldn't get it anywhere

thanks :)
