---

Setup

• Copy the included configuration files into the an appropriate folder (likely /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/lego).
• Add include directives to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf for each configuration file you wish to use, for example:

echo "include /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/lego/Combo_PWM" >> /etc/lirc/lircd.conf

• includes the necessary steps to get LIRC up and running on a Raspberry Pi.
• Jorge Pereira's blog post, Infrared Remote Control, demonstrates how to use LEGO LIRC with a headphone jack.

Known Issues

• The Extended Mode generation code is included, however, it has not yet been tested.
• Of Single Output Mode's two sub-modes, PWM is implemented while Clear/Set/Toggle/Inc/Dec is not.
