use Arduino As uirt?

[Daarn]

You would have to rewrite the Arduino code I posted to be able to use it with the usb-uirt plugin.

Okay I understand. Good go know that it possible. But my codeing skill are not so good. Will see if I can find any that understand how

[joegr]

But I don't need to use your script to get stuff working I can just use drhsIpPlugIn and usb-uirt plugin?

It was one I had in my parts bin from who knows when. Probably something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Infrared-Rece...no+ir+receiver

[Daarn]

Thx looks very nice. Do you have any list of ir part you use receive

[joegr]

I have posted some barely documented code here: https://github.com/joegr123/ESP8266-IR-UDP
It is specific to me, so it will all have to be modified. Think of it as a possible starting point.

i like this idea... I'm starting to look into how to replace a Pronto TSU9600

That sounds very nice. It evering I has looking for. will you share the code for the MCU? and what IR part you use?
Maybe also have you have setup you event in homeseer?

Yes, of course I will share it all. It's fairly specific to my situation, but you should be able to figure out how to change it to fit you.
Can you PM me your email address?

I've been using one (node MCU) for almost a year now to do just that. It receives and decodes IR and transmits IR. It works quite well. I have it communicating UDP and am using the drhsIpPlugIn to communicate from it to HomeSeer. I have receive events in HomeSeer to toggle room lights and lamps on and off, and to trigger IR out to help set up the AVR, TV, and Dish box.

One of the cool ones is this. If it is after a certain time at night and it goes more than 30 minutes since an IR command is received, it turns the TV/Dish/Avr off if they were on. It's an intelligent sleep timer of sorts.

THx For the input. Have you done any update? to see if you can receive?
can you also send the code?

You can use a Z-UNO for this purpose. Arduino smarts with native Z-Wave.

HI thx
I forgott about this thread

[Daarn]

You can also use a ESP8266 and an IR LED if you need transmission (not sure it works on receive), I built one unit for virtually nothing and have a LAN IR module.
