Infrared 'Pronto Hex' decoder

An IR remote

While you can plug in an IR receiver and decode IR signals, it requires you to have an IR receiver and is a bit fiddly.

Luckily, http://irdb.tk contains a list of common remote control codes for different devices.

To use it:

0000 006C 0000 0022 00AD 00AD 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 06FB

Now just enclose that in quotes, and use it with the pronto decoder:

var prontoHex = "0000 006C 0000 0022 00AD 00AD 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0016 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 0041 0016 06FB";
var pulseTimes = require("pronto").decode(prontoHex);

pulseTimes now contains an array of pulses in milliseconds that you can use with digitalPulse on normal Espruino boards, or Puck.IR on Puck.js devices:

Puck.js

Puck.IR(pulseTimes);

Other boards

analogWrite(IR_ANODE,0.9,{freq:38000});
digitalPulse(IR_CATHODE, 1, pulseTimes);
digitalPulse(IR_CATHODE, 1, 0);
digitalRead(IR_ANODE);
