IR/RF transmitter/receiver not working?

• IR requires a line-of-sight between the transmitter and the receiver, which can be easily blocked by solid objects. Other IR light sources like the sun can cause interferences. Solid objects can also block RF signals, especially if made of metal.
• try putting the transmitter and receiver closer (<10cm), many cheap modules have poor ranges, or may be too noisy.
• if using unofficially supported modules, double-check that the used pins are correct. These can be changed in the Settings.
• check if the module is active and working during transmission:
  • for IR, you can use a smartphone camera to check if the IR LED is blinking.
  • use a multimeter or an oscilloscope to check activity on the data pin/LED/antenna.
  • use another device to check and compare the signals. e.g. rtl_433 for RF, Tasmota or a Broadlink RM4 Pro for both IR and RF.
• most RF modules only supports the 433MHz frequency with ASK/OOK modulation. Check if your .sub file or source signal is compatible.
• check the serial log for errors, some signals may fail to decode.

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.

A sample env for the esp32-s3-devkitc-1 is defined here, it should work for all ESP32-S3 boards with 8MB PSRAM.
