Thumbs up for the remote!
While it's true that you can only send 1/2/3 messages, I've written some
code to combine these into 5-digit (trigit?) sequences.
Because of the possibilty of mis-keying or mis-receiving a sequence,
sequences that end with msg 2 are ignored.
This allows for 162 commands. So far, I still have a few unused ones.
I could post more complete code, but for now, here's a fragment:
// encoding macro - make the compiler do the work!
#define SEQ( a, b, c, d, e ) ( (e-1) * 81 + (d-1) * 27 + (c-1) * 9 + (b-1) *
3 + a - 1 )
#define SEQ_12321 SEQ(1,2,3,2,1)
#define SEQ_31111 SEQ(3,1,1,1,1)
#define SEQ_33111 SEQ(3,3,1,1,1)
task t2
{
while( true )
{
get_seq();
play_seq = seq; // causes echo of received sequence
if( seq == SEQ_33111 )
{
ClearSensor( IN_1 );
}
else if( seq == SEQ_12321 )
{
start rot;
}
else if( seq == SEQ_31111 )
{
sub3();
}
}
}
