Open Myrinero opened 8 years ago

Myrinero commented 8 years ago

Hello there,

I've lost the remote for the sounbar and cuz the lack of hardware buttons I can't even turn it on. Try'd the app and it didn't work with soundbar codes for sony in it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, did you try the SA-CT Codes? Which Smartphone and which irplus Version are you using?

Myrinero commented 8 years ago

Yes, i try'd the SA-CT and HCT-Soundbar codes, but didn't work. I'm using Alcatel idol 2 mini with android 4.3 and Huawei t1 7.0 tablet with android 4.4.2 and latest Irplus and Wave versions. Both devices don't have integrated ir, so i diy from your guide. Did two ir transmiters, to be sure that i did not mistake making it. Even diasemble the soundbar to have direct look at the reciver.

On my old Galaxy s4 mini i had it working

On my old Galaxy s4 mini i had it working with *****

The model of the remote is RM-ANU159.

Thanks.

Hi, please uninstall the regular irplus, and only use irplus WAVE (if you dont have integrated IR) to avoid issues.

Can you confirm that your DIY blaster is working correctly? Did you try to successfully control your TV? To confirm that the Voltage of your device is enough, try to see it lighting up with a camera.

I'm pretty sure that the SA-CT codes are correct.

S4-mini has integrated IR and that is a whole different story :)

Well, did leave only the Wave app, but as you said to try - cannot see it light with any of the devices, even try'd with the canon. Maybe the diods are dead or they are not the right one? I'm going out now to take new ones

I don't use TV, so you know... don't have any. :D

Canon? It should light with any button press (one-directional) it doesnt matter which device you set up basically. Could you post pictures (good ones) of your "construction". And if you have - post also the spec of the IR-LED used. Note they must have a low required voltage (about 1.1-1.2V). If you attach a battery to L+ GND / R+GND they should light up individually

Okay, with a battery one of the diods lights up, but with the tablet or phone - no. Don't know the specs of the ir's. Just bought ir diods from the shop (they have only one model at the time).

Hm by the picture it's hard to tell if its wired up correctly, so if you connect to a battery (use 1.2V! not 1.5V!) GND+L one ligihts up, if you connect GND+R the other one lights up?

Also make sure the volume of Media (not Telephone!) is at 100% on the devices

Myrinero commented 8 years ago

It's wired correctly. The same as the picture bellow: https://wiki.samygo.tv/images/thumb/b/b2/Samsung_remote.jpg/450px-Samsung_remote.jpg

Think the problem it's that i'm using 3v diods. I cannot find anywhere 1.1-1.2v diods in local hardware shops, so i'm gonna purchase online to see is that the problem.

irplus-remote commented 8 years ago

With 3v LEDs it will never work. A smartphone can not provide this kind of power (not even near) via the audio out. you need about 1.1-1.2v

Example with U_f = 1.2V
