I've been struggling with a Gree HVAC that i wanted to control by IR for a few days until now.
I think the currently used IRremoteESP8266 library is inadequate for this type of device, because it is using 64 bit long remote codes... i tried arduino-heatpumpir plugin with no success.
finally i've found the above fork that supports Gree:
https://github.com/markszabo/IRremoteESP8266
But sadly it's not a drop-in replacement of the original so i have to modify _P016_IR.ino and _P035_IRTX.ino to compile it. Moreover i converted the IRRecvDump from the above package to learn the control codes from the original remote.
Now i can switch on cooling with 24C with:
IRSEND,GREE,09082050002000D0,64
and switch off with:
IRSEND,GREE,0108205000200050,64
In case of anybody needed, modified source code is attached.

Re: Gree HVAC
Hi, it seems that Gree libraries has been included in the latest release, but there is no hint how to parameter the commands.enesbcs wrote: ↑25 May 2018, 20:33 I've been struggling with a Gree HVAC that i wanted to control by IR for a few days until now.

Last year I compiled a custom image with tadiran libraries for Gree AC, but there are so many changes in the latest releases that i cannot include it anymore.
Do you have any experience with the latest IRTX plugin?
