Replacing IR Reciver with IR Transmitter
Quick question - can ir reciver (LBST0038A) be easily replaced by any ir transmitter? I'd like to make my OPI 2 a remote conroller for AC. You can drive IR transmitter via GPIO. You need a driver, which is not a part of the kernel. Next problem is encrypted protocol ... Check this website for all about IR hacks: https://www.analysir.com/blog/ In Arduino world it is much easier. There are very good IR libraries and example programs where you can read IR remote codes and than use them in your program sending them via IR LED to the device. Probably you could adapt it here without pure Linux way via kernel module, just using bitbanging of GPIO pin.@cbm80 Thanks for info. I'll will take a look into arduino also. Hi, I'm also interested in this question.
I've installed bunch of stuff to enable gpio and lirc, mostly followed
http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-Universal-Remote/step2/Setting-up-the-Software/
And finally stuck on enabling module lirc_rpi, original command is
lirc_rpi gpio_in_pin=23 gpio_out_pin=22
but what can We use in orange pi, is there any thing ?
There seems to be a fork oflirc_rpi called lirc-gpioblaster
https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/lirc-gpioblaster
but it's for OpenWRT
AFAIK ir reciver is connected to PL11 pin, according to fex file:
ir_used = 1
ir_rx = port:PL11<2><1><default><default>
