IRLib Sending IR codes problems

Projects Programming

Hi

I've followed this (Sending IR Codes | Using an Infrared Library on Arduino | Adafruit Learning System) tutorial as I'm trying to replace an IR remote with an Ardunio Uno to control an RGB LED floodlight.

The floodlight came with a standard 24 button remote and I've been able to read the codes with the IRLib library as explained in the above tutorial.

The result of the serial monitor for the code I want the arduino to send is:

eady to receive IR signals

I'm really struggling to get this code to send from the Arduino - is anyone able to advise on the code please? I have the IR transmitter LED connected to pin 2.

Many thanks

Decoded NEC(1): Value:F720DF

So, when you use the IR transmitter example, and sendNEC(0xf720DF), what happens?

I have this as my code

The floodlight doesn't change

#include <IRremote.h>

IRsend irsend;

void setup()
{
}

void loop() {
	for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
		irsend.sendNEC(0xf720DF, 32);
		delay(40);
	}
	delay(5000); //5 second delay between each signal burst
}

The tutorial says it must be connected to pin 3, why are you using another pin? On the UNO it cannot work with pin 2.
