New online conversion tool for Broadlink IR/RF remote: Sensus

Configuration
1

I just published Sensus, an opensource online tool to allow easy conversion and manipulation of IR or RF packets for easy integration in Home Assistant.

Tool is available here: https://pasthev.github.io/sensus/

Without going into too much details, Sensus can convert Pronto, Raw, Decimal, Broadlink hex or B64, and most importantly, allows to generate all these formats from a short-coded manufacturer command or Discrete Code (i.e. ‘A5 1C’, like Pioneer generously indicates for powering on my A/V), or to find this code from a learnt sequence.

Sensus can also instantly edit Broadlink repeats, modify frequency, and generate random IR/RF sequences in all formats (in short, everything I was personally looking for, all in one place, in the hope that this will be useful to others).

While I was at it, I made the interface itself editable, with various color themes and the possibility to hide or show its various panels.
Result should - I hope - be useful to those who don’t know much about remote IR/RF codes and only want easy conversion, as well as to more advanced users who want to disassemble and modify code sequences.

Happy conversion!

@pthev Thank you for sharing the tool! I was trying to use it to learn more about the commands my rangehood understands. For example:

POWER

This is what it outputs for power toggle. I want to see if it supports power on and off instead but searching on the NEC code, I am not finding anything. I was trying to use your tool to convert it into what may be a more popular alternative representation of the command in hopes it appears in some list that contains other commands I can try. Hope this makes sense… or “sensus” :wink:

Problem is I can’t get it to convert any of the codes I have, likely because I know too little about this.
