Just found this now. I will try to catch up asap. In the meantime, I found this question:
NEC1 wrote:If you have not done so, are there plans to incorporate the IR sender and receiver program in the same Arduino board (of which the mode can be selected with a serial port command e.g. "RX" for IR receiving mode and "TX" for IR transmitting mode)?
I am using this sketch and it is working for me (but likely it should be prettified):
Send Pronto Hex via an IR LED connected to Arduino Pin D9. Make sure you do not send a blank (" ") as the last character. For example, to send Sony12, device = 1, obc = 47:
Next version of IrScrutinizer (1.0.2 or possilbly 1.1.0) will come with one Arduino sketch good for both sending and capturing. Due "real soon now". Basically, I am implementing a simple case of the Girs specification..
As described in another thread, IrScrutinizer 1.1.0 has been released. It contains a sketch that, as per above, will both send and capture. The capture is based on MikeT's work, for the sending part, I am now using Chris Young's IrLib, which is based upon Ken Shirriff's library.
It has been tested on Arduino Uno, Nano, Lenoardo, Micro, Mega2560.
Here is a fairly detailed DIY guide for an Arduino nano clone based board, for the price of a small pizza. It incorporates most of the stuff mentioned in this thread, including a further developments of MikeT's excellent work.
