Using an Arduino Ethernet board, you can send IR codes to your TV or BD

With the same board, you can also interface to the Serial Console.


What you can do

  • Send IR codes to your TV, PVR or BD, with an URL in your browser
  • Use telnet to have the Serial Console on your PC or smartphone

Bill of materials

  • Arduino Ethernet board (see Arduino)

Alternatively, an Arduino Uno with an Ethernet shield could also be used

  • IR led (SFH4510 for example)
  • 220 ohms resistor to limit current in the IR led
  • If you plan to use the telnet interface to the Serial Console, make sure you have a 100 ohms resistor on both RX and TX signals (Arduino TX/RX are 5v !)


How to use it

  • Upload the following sketch into your Arduino
  • Connect the IR led with its resistor on pin 8 on the Arduino
  • Connect power and network
  • Find the IP address of the board on your DHCP (or use the static IP embedded in the sketch if you don't have DHCP)
  • Use your browser to send an URL to the board (see format below)
  • If you want to use telnet to connect to the Serial Console :
  • Connect your Serial Console signals to RX/TX on the Arduino board (with 100 ohms resistors)
  • Use Putty with options 'Local Echo' and 'Local line editing' forced to OFF


URL format to send IR codes

The format is http://IP/ir.htm?data=XX&type=Y&device=ZZZZ where

  • IP is the Arduino board IP address
  • XX is the IR code to send
  • Y is 0 for TV/PVR frame format and 1 for BD frame format
  • ZZZZ is the device code (0707 for TV, 0505 for PVR, 301A for BD)


The IR codes are listed at Key codes

  • For TV/PVR, use the 'code' column
  • For BD, use the 'BD-IR code' column


Examples

To get the Service Menu on your TV, use the 2 following URLs :

Please note that you cannot send KEY_FACTORY to a BD, as the corresponding code is not know yet


To have a kind of Wake Up on LAN on your BD player, use


To switch to channel 1 :


IR frames format

BD players use a modified IR frame format that TV and PVR. The reason is that samsung increased the data field length from 8 to 12 bits The general format is now :

  • Start bit
  • Device ID (16 bits - 0707 for TV, 301A for BD)
  • For BD only : Stop bit and data MSB on 4 bits
  • Data LSB
  • Data LSB 1's complement
