It seems the ’ name’ is missing…otherwise this compiles fine:

remote_transmitter:
  pin: GPIO13                       # For iot-uni-stick.
  carrier_duty_percent: 100%        # 50% for IR LED, 100% for direct connect to TSOP IR receiver output.

# Sensors. sensor.masterbedroom_temperature
sensor:
  - platform: homeassistant
    name: Remote tempertature Sensor
    entity_id: sensor.masterbedroom_temperature   # Sensor from HASS
    internal: true
    filters:
      - throttle: 10s
      - heartbeat: 2min             # Maximum interval between updates.
      - debounce: 1s
    on_value:
      midea_ac.follow_me:
        temperature: !lambda "return x;"
        beeper: false

and yes, it should stay ’ return x’

Regarding IR, you have 2 options:
either you use a real IR led, or you use a wire connected to the pin of the IR sensor
Hence 2 choices for config

  • 50% for IR LED
  • 100% for direct connect to TSOP IR

also mentioned on github how to wire it up:
