How to connect IR Transmitter and Receiver Module?

Question

The IR Transmitter and Receiver module has both receiver and transmitter in same board. I tried Arduino IR Remote library example to decode Remote signal using below connection, but its not working.

• IR MODULE: ARDUINO
• Ground -> Ground
• 5V -> 5V
• RXD -> PIN 11
• TXD -> PIN 10

The board also has 3 pin connector (Gnd, 5v, S). How to connect pins to Arduino to receive/decode and send IR signals? (Can't able to find any tutorial for this type of board)

Example Code:

#include <IRremote.h>
int RECV_PIN = 11;
IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);
decode_results results;
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
}

void loop() {
  if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
    Serial.println(results.value, HEX);
    irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value
  }
  delay(100);
}

Answer 1

The device in the question is commonly sold on aliexpress.com and the likes of ebay.com. As you might guess there is little in the way of documentation. Without documentation we can only speculate. As such, I expect that the module handles all the modulation and demodulation. It is likely all you need to do is use the Arduino serial library and connect the TX and RX to the Arduino's RX and TX pins. However, if you would like to preserve the function of these pins for use with the Arduino Uno's USB port, you can use the Arduino software serial library which will "emulate" a serial port an an unused (alternate) set of pins.

(This is an example of a similar well documented device with access to the schematic and source code. Armed with this type of knowledge you can turn this device into what ever you want. In other words, you probably don't even need an Arduino. You can just program this device and be done with your project.)

Answer 2

I think you need to switch RX and TX in your code. Looking at the video that @nick-gammon reffered to. TX on audrion is RX on device.

Answer 3

it use UART protocol so your code is wrong.

Here link with code

Answer 4

For that module you dont need library for easy example for sample for send HIGH and LOW status but. it doesnt work for control IR protocol. for that you need the basic conection Just (data-gnd-Positive) in that example data is for pin = 11
