Hello i tried the Receiving side of the IR and that worked with a remote. But when i tried The IR transmitting I got nothing Not sure IF it's transmitting or not.

Edited: I finally got something to show up and i get some strange things on it.

Using the default sketch below

Receiving

/*
 * IRremote: IRrecvDemo - demonstrates receiving IR codes with IRrecv
 * An IR detector/demodulator must be connected to the input RECV_PIN.
 * Version 0.1 July, 2009

 */

#include <IRremote.h>
IRsend irsend;
int RECV_PIN = 11;

IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);

decode_results results;

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  // In case the interrupt driver crashes on setup, give a clue
  // to the user what's going on.
  Serial.println("Enabling IRin");
  irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
  Serial.println("Enabled IRin");
}

void loop() {



  if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
    Serial.println(results.value, HEX);
    irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value
  }
  delay(1);
}

Sending:

 * An IR LED must be connected to Arduino PWM pin 3.

 */


#include <IRremote.h>

IRsend irsend;

void setup()
{
}

void loop() {
	for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
		irsend.sendSony(0xa90, 12);
		delay(40);
	}
	delay(5000); //5 second delay between each signal burst
}
