Follow this section the first time you get your KontroLIR remote control.


Checklist

  • Make sure you have s SerialUSB adapter which has a pinout for Vcc, GND, Tx, Rx and either DTR or RTS. (Note: some adapters do not have the DTR/RTS pin available, which is required for uploading firmware using the Arduino IDE)
  • Make sure you have a USB cable to use with the serialUSB adapter.
  • Double check your order to establish if you have one or more of the options (EEPROM or dual IR Receivers)
  • If you ordered the SerialUSB adpater, then it will be compatible with KontroLIR.
  • For CP2101 based SerialUSB adapters, drivers can be downloaded from CP2102 Driver download
  • For initial usage, it is best to power KontroLIr with the SerialUSB adapter, until you are ready to use with batteries.
  • Make sure to have 2xAAA batteries availble befor you plan to start using KontroLIR as a remote.
  • Advanced users can also make use of the internally accessible ICSP compatible programming header to upload firmware with or without a bootloader and change fuse settings. However, frequently opening the enclosure could cause some issues over time if care is not taken. We use spludgers and lots of TLC when opening the enclosure to avoid potetial for damage.

Default KontroLIR Firmware

We provide a fully functional firmware for 5 devices, which uses only a small amount of FLASH and SRAM.

  • Device Mode 1 - is a philips smart TV with a mic of RC5 and RC6 protocols
  • Device Mode 2 - is satellite STB, which mainly uses the NEC protocol
  • Device Mode 3 - is for a Samsung TV, which uses teh Samsing Protocol
  • Device Mode 4 - implements a Microsoft Media Center remote control using an extended RC6 protocol.
