IR/RF transmitter/receiver not working?

• if using unofficially supported modules, double check the used pins are correct. These can be changed in the Settings.
• check if the module is active and working during trasmission:
  • for IR, you can use a smartphone camera to check if the IR LED is blinking.
  • use a multimeter to probe the data pin (example).
  • use another device to check and compare the signals. e.g. rtl_433 for RF, Tasmota for both IR and RF.
• try putting the transmitter and receiver closer (<10cm), many cheap modules have poor ranges.
• most RF modules only supports the 433MHz frequency with ASK/OOK modulation. Check if your .sub file is compatible.
• check the serial log for errors.

Port to non-M5Stack boards?

Not officially supported.

For boards that do not have screen and buttons, an headless mode was added. For this to work, you have to manually add a new target in the platformio.ini, and then define the pins and features for the modules you have connected. Then, compile the firmware for your new target and hope it works fine!
