Thank you so much for your insight. Is python fast enough to manually blink the led, or would I have to re-write the protocol in C to make it work?

• What device are you using? mention the device type, purchase date can be useful as well.

• M5StickC+ purchase about a year ago or so

• What firmware are you using? how did you burn the firmware into the device?

• firmware 1.8.8 installed today via m5Burner

• Version of UIFlow you are using

• 1.8.8

• Steps to re-production of the issue so we could test it as well

• See Below

• If it's network / connection issue please make sure to state the country, might be CDN issue or servers issues.

• Network is fine

• Example code if you have one, what you are trying to run so we could re-produce it. When you post your code, make sure to format it properly so we could read it. another option will be to upload it to a website like pastebin.com so we could read it properly.

I’m trying to use the IR block with the built in IR LED. The address doesn’t seem to be sending properly. If I use an address that is less than 0x00FF it sends the first 8bits in the opposite order and then the second 8bits as an inversion of the first 8bits. If I use an address greater than 0x00FF it sends 0xFF00 which I think is an error code.

I believe this the issue is that the code is handling the address like the data (which uses an inverted pair for error checking purposes)

Also the data is being sent backwards too; but that is easy to work around.

Example:
If I send the address 0x0001 I get 0x807F
In binary: 0000 0000 0000 0001 goes to 1000 0000 0111 1111

Code:

I’m using the setup from this page to test my code: [https://simple-circuit.com/arduino-nec-remote-control-decoder/](link url)

I need to send the Address: C1AA

Thank you! I'm continually impressed with your rate of development!

@robalstona That would be the thing I'm looking for! I fully understand that all editing of m5b files must be done in Block Maker. I am just scared that I will have to re-create my m5b files from scratch if I need to change anything after I close the tab.

I have made custom blocks and used them; but it is an iterative process. What I want to know is if there is a way to reopen a file in BlockMaker to revise a .m5b file after closing the window?

@jhonnytank It turned on by setting pin 9 to low. I don't believe there is a photodiode; so I am picking up a arduino remote kit to read my remote a week from Friday. I can post my results when I have them if you want.

I'm working on some custom blocks for python sockets and html for running a web server. I've kept the block maker pages open for these because I didn't see a way to re-open and edit a file. Am I missing anything?
