Hi!

I am building something that looks quite like a sliding gate, but in a small size. The problem is that I dont know how should I control the motor.

The application is composed of a DC motor, something that is attached to the motor(gate), and 4 push buttons/switch's(A,B,C,D).

The idea is that when I push the switch A, the motor drives on one direction, making the "tiny" gate slide to one way until it pushes the switch B(making the motor to stop). Then, when I push the button C, the motor should drive on the opposite way until the "tiny" gate reaches the switch D.

It works quite like an electric sliding gate.

The problem is that I dont know much about electronics and I dont know how to controll the motor. It must be something quite simple for someone who knows about electronics, thats why I post this here.

Can anyone tellme where to find a circuit diagram that does what I need?

Thank you all
