The issue is one of software architecture - IR remote control schemes are not applicable here, rather what is needed is to be sending modulation (pulsing on and off) and checking the receiver at points in between. But also note as the correct answer clarifies that the modulated signal itself must be pulsed on and off at a slower cycle time, or the detector will reject it. | |
