I tried deciphering the IR remote control signals as well, by connecting a surplus receiver to one of my HC11's input capture pins. Software stored timer values in a list, producing the effect of a digital oscilliscope. Trusty calculator in hand, I then puzzled for several days over the printouts. I found several "layers" of encoding as I went along. I never did reach a point where I felt I knew enough to produce an ad hoc data sheet, but I did learn more than is in the "zapper" documentation. My latest project, which is on a back burner due to schoolwork, is the transmit portion. The hardware part has been prototyped, and uses a PLL frequency multiplier which is locked to a reference squarewave from the HC11. Having a dedicated realtime processor with the I/O features of the HC11 was enormously helpful, toward this end. -Ken
