Hi all,
a new user here and HA looks really great.
I followed the guide how to setup the “GreeClimateComponent”. I have Inventor AC Premium.
When the gree climate want to start, looks like it will connect to the AC, but there appears issue with encryption key, or am I reading this error message wrong:

please do you know where or how to get the key from the AC?
Thank you.
