Where do you find IR code ?

[Sebastien Vayrette-Gavard]

I am trying to find a list of infra-red codes that you use to send IR commands.
For example the following:

irsend.send(NEC, 0x1EE17887, 32);

Is there a list of all known brands and commands?

@Sebastien-Vayrette-Gavard This is one of the best sites: http://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/codes/, but you may need to convert them to match what the Arduino needs.

@Spakrman alright, say I have one of those Epson projector http://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/codes/epson/lcd_projector_no_touchdisc/
how does one go about sending say POWER command

0000 0071 0000 0002 0000 00AA 0000 0040 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0015 0000 003F 0000 0040 0000 0040 0000 003F 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0040 0000 0040 0000 0015 0000 0611 0000 0055 0000 0E40

within the Arduino code

irsend.send(???, 0x????????, ??);

what did I miss please help me understand.

@Sebastien-Vayrette-Gavard Sorry, I thought there was a converter online that would convert from pronto to the code needed by this sketch. The one I thought would work is coming up with an error when I run it. I haven't looked into the details of the IR library included with MySensors. There's likely a way to manually convert between the two (there are good descriptions on what the pronto codes mean here: http://www.hifi-remote.com/infrared/IR-PWM.shtml and here: http://www.remotecentral.com/features/irdisp2.htm). You could likely use a different IR library/sketch as well that's meant for sending pronto codes. Here's are a few: https://github.com/probonopd/arduino-infrared-pronto and http://irdb.tk/send/. The other option you have is to build an IR receiver and then use the remote you have to learn the code.

Here's a library that looks like it has codes in the correct format: http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ along with an explanation on how to use those files here: http://www.righto.com/2010/03/understanding-sony-ir-remote-codes-lirc.html.

@Sparkman, hero member I get it now. Thank you!
