Support for IR controller shield (wemos d1 mini)

[rradar]

Wemos D1 mini IR controller shield specifications:

• 4x IR LEDs (940nm) pointing in four different directions
• 1x IR receiver (38 kHz) for learning function
• Tx/Rx mode selection – Sender – D3/GPIO0, Receiver – D4/GPIO2
• 2x 8-pin headers compatible with Wemos/LOLIN D1 mini board

US $1.40 / piece

Is it for good? Should make a compact desgin in the end :smiling_imp:

Ordered, will see in a few weeks

I have it! Soldered and ready to fly!

Pins are clear:

D3(GPIO0) | Send D4(GPIO2) | Receiver

Any tips for code to try? Should it just works out of the box?

[1technophile]

great, just follow the wiki on we say to uncomment ZgatewayIR in user_config.h and change the pins in config_IR.h

I received mine, don't still tested them, do you have some feedback on your side?

[rradar]

hey @1technophile sorry - didn't had any time recently and had no running arduino sdk as well... Maybe the next weekend I have time to try - meanwhile you could give a try and report back ;)

@rradar I confirm it works natively with these pins:

#ifdef ESP8266
  #define IR_RECEIVER_PIN 2
  #define IR_EMITTER_PIN 0

Receiver and emitter

Range of emitter is around 2meters for my tv
