Description:

I had trouble sending a clean signal from Lambda and ChatGPT didn't generate a correct example, so I propose adding an example to the documentation. I saw that others had the same problem

Walkthrough

The documentation for the remote_transmitter component was updated to clarify and expand the lambda call example. The .transmit() method description was broadened, and a new C++ example was added to demonstrate transmitting raw timings, complementing the existing protocol-specific example.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
components/remote_transmitter.rst Expanded and clarified lambda call example; updated .transmit() method description; added C++ example for transmitting raw timings.

🧹 Nitpick comments (2)
components/remote_transmitter.rst (2)

1071-1071: Grammar – use “a signal” instead of “an signal”.

-- ``.transmit()``: Transmit an signal using the remote transmitter.
+- ``.transmit()``: Transmit a signal using the remote transmitter.

1075-1083: Example tweaks for consistency & clarity.

  1. Variable naming – earlier examples use my_transmitter; switching to remote_transmitter_id may confuse newcomers.
  2. Consider an inline comment that the values are micro-seconds and the sign indicates level (positive = HIGH, negative = LOW).
  3. set_send_wait(2000) is a 2 ms gap; most remotes repeat after 10 ms-20 ms. A 10 000 µs value would better mirror previous YAML examples.
-      auto call = id(remote_transmitter_id).transmit();
+      auto call = id(my_transmitter).transmit();  // replace with your transmitter ID
@@
-      call.set_send_wait(2000);
+      // wait time in micro-seconds; 10 000 µs (=10 ms) is common
+      call.set_send_wait(10'000);

Replacing “IR code” with the more generic signal makes the sentence accurate for RF users as well.

Base branch is correct. This is a improvements in the current documentation and is not for a new component or feature.

@jesserockz Can I ask for a review here too? This does not touch on the cc1101 component, but I only mentioned this PR to link to the discussion therein, but it's a low-priority change, so it can wait and be released with the next release.
