Infrared remote control with HX1838 infrared module

This infrared remote control is perfect for controlling your Arduino without much hardware effort. The remote control can also be used to create a simple user interface, for example to make settings on the Arduino. You can download an Arduino library for the control from Github at the following link https://github.com/z3t0/Arduino-IRremote.

Recommended Accessories:

CR2032 button cell battery 3V

Connections:

IR Module => Arduino UNO

- => GND

Middle => 5V

S => Pin 11

Arduino Sketch:

#include <IRremote.h>   //Include Arduino Library this can be downloaded from Github
int receiver = 11;      //PIN where the IR Receiver is connected
IRrecv irrecv(receiver);//Create a new instance with the name receiver
decode_results results;
void setup() {
 Serial.begin(9600);
 irrecv.enableIRIn();   //Start receiver
}
void loop() {
 if (irrecv.decode(&results)) { //Detect IR Signal
 Serial.println (results.value, HEX); //Display HEX Number
 irrecv.resume(); //Next Number
 }
}
