Code: Phoenix Compatibility #4

It takes 1-3 seconds between shots for the library to "reset" and fire the correct data sequence. If you fire too fast it just sends junk data. I'm not sure why as the Phoenix Compatible Library was not written by us. Fix is probably to re-write or throw in a delay as a short term fix until someone wants to figure out why. Phoenix compatibility was a side goal though, so this is low priority.

I don't know if it is related, but your friend GranTotem use an old version of IRremote but last year a "send loops coding error" was fixed.

The actual IRremote project is here. https://github.com/z3t0/Arduino-IRremote Hope this will fix the issue.

I started with that version, but we have to use a specific version that is compatible with the Teensy so we can't just go back to that. The 1-3 second delay is a known issue with communicating with the Phoenix and I haven't seen it any other time. Both of these mean just using that library won't fix the problem.
