# IR Protocol Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
This example illustrates how to encode and decode RMT signals with/to common IR protocols (e.g. NEC and RC5).
[NEC](https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/nec.php) and [RC5](https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/rc5.php) have different encoding rules, but both can be compatible to RMT data format.
The example supports building and parsing both normal and extended NEC/RC5 protocol. And also supports `repeat code` which would be sent out if one remote key got pressed for a specific long time.
## How to Use Example
### Hardware Required
* A development board with supported SoC mentioned in the above `Supported Targets` table
2019-11-19 03:10:24 -05:00
* An USB cable for power supply and programming
* A 5mm infrared LED (e.g. IR333C) used to transmit encoded IR signals
* An infrared receiver module (e.g. IRM-3638T), which integrates a demodulator and AGC circuit.
Example connection :
| ESP chip | IR333C | IRM-3638T |
| --------------------------- | ------ | --------- |
| CONFIG_EXAMPLE_RMT_TX_GPIO | Tx | × |
| CONFIG_EXAMPLE_RMT_RX_GPIO | × | Rx |
| VCC 5V | √ | × |
| VCC 3.3V | × | √ |
| GND | GND | GND |

### Configure the Project
Open the project configuration menu (`idf.py menuconfig`).
2019-11-19 03:10:24 -05:00
In the `Example Configuration` menu:
2019-11-19 03:10:24 -05:00
* Select the infrared protocol used in the example under `Infrared Protocol` option.
* Set the GPIO number used for transmitting the IR signal under `RMT TX GPIO` option.
* Set the GPIO number used for receiving the demodulated IR signal under `RMT RX GPIO` option.
* Set the RMT TX channel number under `RMT TX Channel Number` option.
* Set the RMT RX channel number under `RMT RX Channel Number` option.

### Build and Flash
Run `idf.py -p PORT flash monitor` to build, flash and monitor the project.
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
