Add these lines to the end of the file:

lirc_rpi gpio_in_pin=23

Save your changes, press Ctrl-x then Y and enter.

To set up your pi to receive IR data from PIFace CAD, first backup the

previous Linux Infrared Remote Control configuration with:

cp /etc/lirc/hardware.conf ~/.

Then edit the configuration using

sudo nano /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

So it looks like the following:

# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd

LIRCD_ARGS="--uinput"

#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file

#START_LIRCMD=false

#Don't start irexec, even if a good config file seems to exist.

#START_IREXEC=false

#Try to load appropriate kernel modules

LOAD_MODULES=true

# Run "lircd --driver=help" for a list of supported drivers.

DRIVER="default"

# usually /dev/lirc0 is the correct setting for systems using udev

DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"

MODULES="lirc_rpi"

# Default configuration files for your hardware if any
