Hi, did you try GitHub - marsh4200/ar_smart_ir_builder: AR Smart IR Builder · GitHub

48

yes that is what i’m using.
I also did the update today hoping it would work

49

Hi, no, same result :
Failed to perform the action fan.turn_on. Unknown error

I used your new codeset import inbox and worked perfect. Thx.

I keep adding questions but.. why hacs does not report there’s an update on this integration? … I have to check and redownload manually.

hello…first of all thank you for your amazing work. I try to add my Sharp AC (climate) to AR Smart IR but after selecting SHARP as manufacture, it only show one type/code (7300) in the model/code selection. I want to add code 1301 and i checked this json file is exist in /homeassistant/custom_components/ar_smart_ir/codes/climate/

I’m using S09-CB3S IR blaster connected using Tuya Local integration. Any suggestion?

Hi there! Thank you Please don’t select SHARP . Instead, select sharp (the one written in lowercase).

53

that’s it…thank you!!

another question…for power sensor to detect if my ac is on or off i create binary sensor template based on power usage of the AC power socket. but my climate card not change to off state when the binary sensor state is off..do you have better solution or suggestion for this power sensor?

Hi, I noticed the same issue. I just created 2 Automations to keep it in sync:

alias: Airco - MB Climate turned On  (Sync the Switch)
description: ""
triggers:
  - trigger: state
    entity_id:
      - climate.smartir_climate_mb
    from:
      - "off"
conditions: []
actions:
  - action: input_boolean.turn_on
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: input_boolean.ac_mb
mode: single

and

alias: Airco - MB Climate Turned Off (Sync the Switch)
description: ""
triggers:
  - trigger: state
    entity_id:
      - climate.smartir_climate_mb
    to:
      - "off"
conditions: []
actions:
  - action: input_boolean.turn_off
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: input_boolean.ac_mb
mode: single

That does the trick for me.

Unfortunately, due to HAIR posting in my GitHub issues and now adopting the IR code set, I’ve decided to archive the repository.

I appreciate everyone who contributed and supported the project. Going forward, I hope Mr. DAB-LABS REPO can provide further assistance

Understand. I get the future of the integration for IR and RF is going to be that way, but I really like the way this project handle things. Specially for Broadlink users that don’t work with the PRONTO protocol. Thanks again for your assistance.
