RC5SEND

Action

Sends RC5 remote code.

 

 

Syntax

RC5SEND togglebit, address, command

 

 

Uses

TIMER1

 

 

Remarks

Togglebit	Make the toggle bit 0 or 32 to set the toggle bit
Address	The RC5 address
Command	The RC5 command.

 

The resistor must be connected to the OC1A pin. In the example a 2313 micro was used. This micro has pin portB.3 connected to OC1A.

Look in a data sheet for the proper pin when used with a different chip.

 

 

Most audio and video systems are equipped with an infra-red remote control.

The RC5 code is a 14-bit word bi-phase coded signal.

The two first bits are start bits, always having the value 1.

The next bit is a control bit or toggle bit, which is inverted every time a button is pressed on the remote control transmitter.

Five system bits hold the system address so that only the right system responds to the code.

 

Usually, TV sets have the system address 0, VCRs the address 5 and so on. The command sequence is six bits long, allowing up to 64 different commands per address.

 

The bits are transmitted in bi-phase code (also known as Manchester code).

An IR booster circuit is shown below:
