ESPHome Ir Codes for Broadlink Integration

ElMaquinista · December 27, 2024, 11:18am

Hello there,

i got an AC from General Fujitsu and i got the RM4 Mini from Broadlink.

I would like to use it in HA and i tried to learn some commands, but i saw there are many different commands to learn.
So i searched the web and found a complete list of codes i need:

github.com

migabit/Fujitsu_IR_AR-JE5/blob/a89767eaebb58bf05858c52ac8da5da9703dbd2a/climate codes.yml

# AEHA:	( address = 0x28C6)																Panasonic:

POWER ON (21C AUTO / AUTO)
        0x28C6, data=[0x00,0x08,0x08,0x3F,0x10,0x0C,0x8A,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0xFE]			

POWER OFF
        0x28C6, data=[0x00,0x08,0x08,0x40]														0x28C6, command=0x00080840

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SWING
        0x28C6, data=[0x00,0x08,0x08,0xB6]														0x28C6, command=0x000808B6

SWING SET POSITION
        0x28C6, data=[0x00,0x08,0x08,0x36]														0x28C6, command=0x00080836

Problem is, these codes are in a different format than the ones i need in HA.

Can anyone please help me converting the codes?
I tried to find out how it could work, i tried with the Off Command
but i got no chance to com from something like this:
0x28C6, data=[0x00,0x08,0x08,0x40]
to something like this:
JgBmAGg1DQ4NDg0oDQ4NKA0ODQ4NDg0oDSgODQ0ODQ4NKA0pDA4NDg0ODg4MDg0ODQ8NDQ0ODQ4NDwwODQ4NKA0ODQ4NDwwODQ4NDg4ODCgODgwODQ4NDg4nDQ4ODgwODQ4NDg4ODAANBQ==
and vice versa.

If someone has the idea, i would apreciate the help.

Thanks in advance

Hello,
have you seen this link

Ill try to help you more later,

I also wouldn’t be shocked to learn esphome cannot run ir or rf signals.

Hello Jerry,

the problem is, that i dont want to use ESPHome,
i would like to use the Broadlink Integration only.

Only convert the codes from the page to the format of the Boradlink integration.

yes. here

github.com/esphome/feature-requests

Add support for the ac remote Fujitsu AR-JE5

opened 09:59PM - 23 Jun 20 UTC

integration: climate_ir

**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like** The AC Remote Fujitsu AR-JE5 is not included in the list of compatible Fujitsu remotes of component climate fujitsu_general. **Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:** - I try to copy the codes using remote_receiver. - I try the stable/next/dev versions to check if any contains the remote. - I try the actual climate fujitsu_general component **Additional context** Maybe the SmartIR Broadlink integration could help to identify the codes: https://github.com/smartHomeHub/SmartIR/blob/master/codes/climate/1286.json
