Remote for Festool CTL SYS

thingiverse

The Festool bluetooth remote module is not compatible with the CTL SYS. Someone already created a solution to make the bluetooth kit compatible: (https://github.com/jenskueper/festool-ctl-sys-bluetooth). Inspired by this solution I created a variant using a simple 433MHz based potential free relay Bill of materials: - KR2202-4 (Receiver only) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000926100221.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.30.21ef1802wDYSuy - Transmitter https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003766919725.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.25.21ef1802wDYSuy - 2pcs 3M Scotchlok IDC Connector 804 (or similar 16awg wire tap) - Connector JST-ZH 1.5mm pitch 5-pin male with cable (~40cm) (got mine from https://webshop.domoticx.nl/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=4611 and extended cable) - 1.5mm2/16AWG cable 30cm (pair of brown and blue) Assembly instructions (photos in corresponding order): - Remove vacuum power. Do not resume of you are not familiar with modifying 230v machines. - Assemble remote by placing pcb in base and screwing on the top using self-tapping screws. - Slide remote over suction hose by removing the connecting sleeve first - wire the receiver PCB (brown to L, blue to N, Red to 6, black to 5) - mount receiver PCB into brackets using self-tapping screws. - check that the JST cable is properly wired. Check the photos for which pins should be connected. You need these two specific pins. - connect the small JST connector to the festool PCB, keep in place with a bit of hot glue - connect the receiver pcb power by connecting to the mains cable using the tap connectors - mount everything back in place, except the remote receiver - Apply power to system, be carefull of electric shock when operating the receiver button - Pair the receiver and the remote in toggle mode according to the manual - Test by powering on and putting the CTL sys in auto mode. One click should enable the vacuum, the second click should disable it. - disconnect power - assemble full vacuum. - Done!
