Xiaomi IR remote

Configuration
1

I have a Xiaomi IR remote wifi device (aka Chuangmi IR), and I would like to control my Panasonic AC with it. Basic configuration and sending on/off codes are working fine, but I would make a simple on/off switch to the Hass home screen.

current config:

remote:
  - platform: xiaomi_miio
    host: 192.168.1.13
    name: xremote
    token: secret
    slot: 1
    timeout: 30
    hidden: false
    commands:
      ac_off:
        command:
          - raw:Z6W3AbUBAAAIBQAArAY...........
      ac_on:
        command:
          - raw:Z6W3AbUBAAAMBQAAqw..........

script:
  panasonic_ac_off:
    sequence:
      - service: remote.send_command
        entity_id: 'remote.xremote'
        data:
          command:
            - 'ac_off'
  panasonic_ac_on:
    sequence:
      - service: remote.send_command
        entity_id: 'remote.xremote'
        data:
          command:
            - 'ac_on'

So it’s working fine but I’m a littlebit confused among the scripts, switches and services… :slight_smile: How can I get a simple on/off switch easier instead of the two script activate button on the web GUI?

Thanks!
