Hello,
I am trying to use an Arduino Uno and IR remote to control a string of LED lights. I downloaded the IR remote library from the internet here: GitHub - Arduino-IRremote/Arduino-IRremote: Infrared remote library for Arduino: send and receive infrared signals with multiple protocols. At first when I ran the example to receive IR codes from the remote it seemed that everything was working perfectly fine but I didn't know how to use the dec codes. Now I know how to use the codes but for some reason it no longer receives and IR data from the remote. I have no idea what is wrong and I have tried two different IR receivers and 3 different IR remotes.. still nothing. The serial monitor is completely blank.
My receiver is connected to pin 7 on the arduino. The code I have been using for just getting the IR codes from the remote is attached.
