IR Receiver

 

ARDUINO Code:

#include <IRremote.h>
int RECV_PIN = 11;
IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);
decode_results results;
#define led 13
boolean state = false;
void setup() {
//Serial.begin(9600);
irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
//Serial.println(results.value);
//delay(100);
irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value
if (results.value == 1320368837 && state == false) // put your remote number here
{
digitalWrite(led, HIGH);
state = true;
delay(10);
}
else if (results.value == 1320368837 && state == true) // put your remote number here
{
digitalWrite(led, LOW);
state = false;
delay(10);
}
}
}
