Hey, i also would like to get some more photos or atleast instructions as how to open up the unit. I tried removing all the screws i could see but was still not able to open it up. @redpersian Did you ever get a reply or figure it out on your own?
Edit: i found a diffrent post from him in another thread with pictures and a guy describing how to open the Midea Real Cool 35.
Take off all visible screws of the AC unit and then pull on the back. its held in by clips and they are strong, takes a bit of force to remove. Then the Rest is pretty easy. The USB is near the top of the front, roughly where the midea logo is. i just tilted the front a bit and switched the usb sticks.
It is not necessary to get the display PCB out. The Wifi connector is accessible after removing the rear housing of the unit. It might be hidden under a grey foam sticker.
Hi, Sorry I haven’t logged on to forums in a while. I used an esp8266 12f and a regulator to utilize the space they left for their module. as far the code is concerned, here is what I used for the pins.
logger:
baud_rate: 0
uart:
tx_pin: 1
rx_pin: 3
baud_rate: 9600
## IR part:
- platform: template
name: AC Display Toggle IR
id: ac_display_toggle
on_press:
- remote_transmitter.transmit_toshiba_ac:
rc_code_1: 0xB54AF50AA55A
it works well, just let me know if you need full yaml config.
