IR Remote

Im making a IR Remote and Its only purpose is to turn any device that it is pointed at off.

Arduino micro

FTDI breakout

Perf board

IR send/receive pair

6 buttons

6 2K resistor

6 1N4007 diode

1uf 50V capacitor

coin cell holder

cr2032 battery

10 inches of wire

You are going to want to follow this diagram the best you can. this diagram will show you how everything connects to each other. It is easier to do this with the perf board to keep everything neat. that way you dont tangle anything.

Once you have soldered everything you will need to upload code to the Arduino. to do that you will need the Arduino IDE app on your computer at https://www.arduino.cc/en/software/. after get the code from https://gitlab.com/makeitforless/Universal_Remote

once you have those you can plug your Arduino to your computer and open the Arduino app. after opening the app make sure it has detected your device. if it has then upload the code we got into the app.

before you upload the code to the Arduino, go to the library tab and search "IRremote by shirrff, z3t0, AminJo." and install version 4.1.1. download the Low power library from https://github.com/rocketscream/Low-Power and import it into the IDE app.

after all of that you can upload your code to the Arduino and it should just work.
