balena-ir-remote

simple server application that allows to clone, save and arbitrarily execute IR commands.

SETUP

• a RaspberryPi
• an IR receiver ( 5V tolerant, digital interface ) VCC -> 5V, GND -> GND, OUT -> GPIO23
• an IR transmitter ( 5V tolerant, digital interface ) VCC -> 5V, GND -> GND, SIG -> GPIO24
• the following configuration variable set in your balenaCloud application (Define DT overlays option under the Device Configuration tab): BALENA_HOST_CONFIG_dtoverlay = "gpio-ir,gpio_pin=23","gpio-ir-tx,gpio_pin=24" (you can use any other HAT GPIO pin since the gpio-ir overlay always exposes to userspace the same 2 devices lirc0 and lirc1
