Our recent Tweets regarding our “TV-B-On” project has generated quite a lot of interest.<\/p>\n

In short we are plagued by systems with “soft-on” buttons – i.e. when you power the device up (from the wall switch) it simply enters standby mode.<\/p>\n

To solve this we used an Arduino to export the Infra Red codes of the required equipment’s remotes and then create a unit (in this case a 16MHz \/ 5v Arduino Micro) to play back the codes when powered up. We’ve also got a version with a RTC (Real Time Clock) to do timed starts \/ stops. At this stage the Arduino is probably overkill so we’re looking to produce an ATtiny version at some point down the road.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
