Infrared between PDA and robot

[engineeringarobot]

Hello all,

Sorry if this is not the right place to post but this is somewhat an embedded systems question. I have a rx1950 Pocket PC from HP, now I have built a robot with an TFDU6102 transceiver. However, I can not make a connection between the PDA and the robot. Any suggestions as to the transceiver? Are they even compatible or should I just use a different transceiver? Any suggestions are welcomed.

Thanks in advance

The Transciever you used is an IRDA transciever so should work with pocket pc.

You did not mention wether you were trying to implement IRDA on the robot end or not. If you are working with raw ir you will need to setup a program on your pcoket pc that can talk raw ir first.

Implementing an IRDA protocol is a bit of work so it might be worth exploring RAW ir if that works for you

**broken link removed**is a application note for IrDA to COM conversion. TFDS4500 need modulated signals, not UART signal directly

yes,i used PIC (UART) --> MCP2155(Modu..)--->Tfds4500. or COM??
