I also have some of these IR sensors. But I dont have an archos remote. :-( Still need batteries to power the sensor, but it should be much less power consuming than a microcontroller. When will you try? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Justin" <jaf60_at_it.canterbury.ac.nz> To: "Rockbox" <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 8:51 PM Subject: RE: PIC12C508A-based remote > >what about an infrared remote? > >based on UIR Univerversal InfraRed design > > > >Has anybody made a documentation of the remote specs.? > > I was planning to try building one, and I was thinking that you don't > need to know any of the specs, if the following trick turns out to be > successful: > > Connect a standard IR sensor package (ie, the three-pin ones with > built-in 40kHz filtering) directly to the remote pin of the audio > socket, and to the power supply.
