Finally I have time to play again with the IR. ;) Costo, do I need a resistor between GPIO and the base of the transistor? On the schematic I see 1kΩ resistor, on other sites I found 4.7kΩ resistors.

EDIT:

I just made a quick prototype:

It's working pretty good. Two more questions left unanswered:

If I choose GPIO2 (D4 on Wemos) the WiFi led is lighting ->why?
Can I use the IR LED(+transistors, resitors) on a 2 meter length cable? On the other end will be the ESP8266.

hpapagaj, you can control your air conditioner?I had sucess using irheatpump plugin, but i can control Samsung aircon only in my tests, and trying undesrtand the other aircon brand library of this plugin.In the simple IR Transmit plugin (native of ESPEASY), i can control tv and others devices easily but the air conditioner no.

No, I checked only my TV. But my AC is on my list.

User ToniA made a plugin for Heat Pumps (basically they are AC's with long codes), I am now waiting for support for my remote/AC.

Here, I scanned my remote:
https://github.com/ToniA/arduino-heatpumpir/issues/11

...using his tool:
https://github.com/ToniA/Raw-IR-decoder-for-Arduino

The plugin that he wrote for ESP EASY:

https://github.com/ToniA/ESPEasyPluginP ... pumpIR.ino

You must compile ESP EASY to try out, maybe your AC is already supported, because in code I see SamsungHeatpumpIR.h.

I there,

Got some time to play with IR on my side.

Got a Samsung HWJ355 sound system. Remote number is AH59-02547B.

Looks like this device doesn't use Samsung Protocole :

IRrecdumpV2 give :

ESPEasy IR RX give a different HEX code who doesn't works of course.

Any idea to help please ?

Following this : https://www.hackster.io/BuddyC/wifi-ir-blaster-af6bca

Raw code is hardcoded on Script.

I manage to send a my raw IR code true an ESP8266.

Hi,

is it possible to use such IR Transmitter? It generates the 38k frequency by itself. So PWM is not needed on ESP side. How the frequency generation can be disabled in ESP code?

Hi all,
is it possible by any means to send RAW large IR code like the ones used in ACs ? i managed to have this working on a normal Arduino, but it seems that Plugin P035 is configured only with the 7 well known protocols
it would be perfect if we have the ability to send RAW large commands

Hello all,

after tinkering and testing around i've created a first prototype of a little IR transmitter/receiver module.
Some improvements are still to be made:
- Change the transistor to a SMD darlington type or MOSFET to get more power,
- OnBoard flashing possibility
- find out why it does not boot up sometimes when powered on.

For now besides the mentioned points the prototype works well, driving my Yamaha receiver and some cheap led stripes from the DIY market.
It can be used with 2 or 4 IR-LEDs so one may bend some LEDs to get better results or use 850 nm and 940nm LEDs in parallel.
A TSOP-Receiver can be added optionally to the board to use a IR remote control for what purposes ever.

Hi.

I'm working to get IRTX plugin to send RAW codes.

My idea is to add a sequences of pulses-spaces encoded like this:

/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,26,512,256,1f8108550a8428542142150a85555555550a85421555421555555555555555555555550aa85
26: kHz in HEX (0x26 = 38)
512: Duration of Pulse
256: Duration of Space
Big Hex: Sequences of 0/1 encoded in HEX

After recreating the durations, finally call:

Plugin_035_irSender->sendRaw(buf, buf_len, kHz);

Using the example above, and taking the first 4 digits (1f81), we can see that
1 = 0001
f = 1111
8 = 1000
1 = 0001
That means that the first pulse (1), which counts 6, will have a duration of 512*6 = 3072. So buf[0] = 3072.
And the spaces count 6 too, but buf[1] = 1536 because the Space duration is 256.

I've a few questions:
1. What is the limit on the URL that ESPEasy can handle? Is it 80? Where is it defined?
2. I'm new to programming on the ESP8266 and with PlatformIO. Should I get an eye on the resulting .bin file size? For example, I got this log:
Calculating size .pioenvs/normal_4096/firmware.elf
text data bss dec hex filename
415955 9752 39440 465147 718fb .pioenvs/normal_4096/firmware.elf
Building .pioenvs/normal_4096/firmware.bin

Are those numbers right? In case the resulting size exceeds the ESP space, should I get a warning from the IDE?
3. In case something goes wrong after firmware upload, Can I only revert to a functional ESPEasy using an USB-Serial? Are there any other options available like ICSP?

Thank you, and would like to hear your opinions. Regards.

Good news.

I've made a simple test sending a RAW signal and it works fine.

It's just a concept proof.

I'll be coding a final-general approach on the next days....

Hello Everyone,

i am new to IR, and my understanding is that if i want to send an unknown code i have to send raw data in arrays, does this work too with the well known codes ? also some of my remotes send different code every key press and some have alternating codes for the same key, is it ok to just pick one of the codes for this key and send it ? or do i have to act same as the remote ?

i am currently checking IR Blaster code on "https://www.hackster.io/BuddyC/wifi-ir-blaster-af6bca" to send raws using esp8266 and "https://learn.adafruit.com/ir-sensor/using-an-ir-sensor" to decode the remote signal to Raws.

GusPS would you please let me know when you finish, if it is ok with you.

I will also post my progress here.

Yes. A well-known code can be sent as a RAW code too. The advantage about using a well-known code with ESPEasy is that the pulse/space will be a HEX string of about 6 or 8 digits. With a RAW, this must be greater unless a good reduction routine will be written. I'm thinking about using a base 32 or 64 instead 16 to be able to have an URL with shorter length. Or any other idea... don't know yet. I hear opinions!....

I've seen that almost every key has the same code. There are a few that does not send the same code. Here I've an Air Conditioner remote that the ON/OFF button send one code to turn it on and a different one to turn it off.
Don't know your remote, but I would mimic as close as possible their behavior.
Tip: Don't be confused about pulse-space and code. If a key send the same code, 99.9% that the pulse-space sequence will be different every time. But if you see it in detail, will notice that the diffs are minimal.

I've tested it with 2 buttons on different remotes.

1)
The red on/off button on "Top House" control:

Here is the Hex Bin file generated by IR Toy:

2)
The blue on/off button on Delonghi Air Conditioner:
Image
Here is the Hex Bin file generated by IR Toy:
http://filebin.ca/3En2d3V91y99/onoff_delonghi.bin
In this case, the control sends a different code to turn on and to turn off. The file corresponds to "turn on".


The bin files format are described here: http://dangerousprototypes.com/docs/USB ... pling_mode
I save those files as .bin using GTKTerm on Linux.

To convert the .bin file into a base32hex string, I run (previously the variables pulse_len ad blank_len must be seted):

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/python

b32 = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUV"
b64 = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/"

def bits32(bits):
    rdo = ""

The base32hex string that should be used is "B32".

For now, I think it's a start.

Things to improve:
  • Improve Python script to accept params instead of setting it in the code.
  • Improve Python script to read "space / pulse" text files
  • Improve Python script to automatically determine pulse and blank length
  • Improve _P016_IR.ino to inform a base32hex in case an Unkown Type is received.
  • Suggest the _P035_IRTX.ino diffs to be accepted on master branch. (I've to read about how to do it)
Any doubts, suggestion, comments, etc, are welcome!

Hey everyone,
I've tried to use the send RAW function but without success so far. The hardware part should be okay, it works with other devices.

From the raw data (see below) I thought that these were the correct parameters:
Blank: 450
Pulse: 1200 (I also tried 400 without success)
Binary: 001010100100110000000010100001100100100011001100
(using https://www.translatorscafe.com/unit-co ... bers/4-35/ to convert)

Heres what I recorded with the IRRemote library from the button (its from an Denon AVR-1612 receiver):

I guess I didn't really understand how to derive the binary code from the raw timings - could someone help me out here?

Let me know it it works. Also check if "38" is the correct Hz. Also try 36 or 40.

As you can see, i've used 400ms for both space & pulse. This would lead to not so precise values. If I choose 50ms, i get this b32 string: 3VVVVVVVVVVVVU0000007VG1VS0FU00001VS0FU00001VO0FU00001VO0FU07VG0000VU07V01VO0000FV00000VS07V03VG0VS07V03VO1VS0FV03VG0000FV03VG0000FU03VG1VS0FU03VG0000FU00001VO0FU07VG0000VU07V01VO00007V01VO0VU07V00000VS00003VO0VS0FV00001VS00007VG0VS0FV

That would replicate EXACT timings, BUT it is too large (235 chars) for ESPEasy URL. :(

Hey GusPS,
thanks for your effort! Unfortunately I couldnt get it to work yet :(
I've tried your suggestions, plus I replaced "cbits: 0" with "cbits: 1" because I thought there should be a space as well, but no luck so far. 36 or 40 Hz didn't work either.

I've created a spreadsheet to generate the binary code automatically, so others might use that, too:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

Any other ideas would be appreciated!

Didn't notice there where one "cbits=0"!!!!... That's important. Luckly you saw it.

Very good spreadsheet! Thanks!

A few Qs:

1. How are you getting the byte array? Is weird to me that the timings are so precise!. IRRemote library can be so precise like that? I use IR Toy, and the Sampling Mode always gives me some minimal differences between tests.
2. If you use the ESPEasy with the base32 value against the IRRemote library, which result do you get?
3. What about using 150 as "space" and "pulse? That's giving me ---> FVVVS01PPG1PG1HG1HJG1PHG1O0OPHHJJJJ03J03376606066E0766066EC0C0ECS0E0737
That's 71 chars and I think is enough for the URL buffer.
4. As stated in this page (http://mc.mikrocontroller.com/de/IR-Pro ... .php#DENON - Use google to translate it to English), the Denon protocol uses 32Khz. Try all those tests, even the previous ones, changing it.
5. Also, try to get more info about your controller in http://irdb.tk

Let me know when you test it.
As the last resort, if you are sure that the protocol is the Denon, there's the possibility to implement it like the RC5 or Panasonic, etc... in which case you could finally use the 32 bits code (in your example the number 77DE9340)

PD: More info about Denon protocol -----> http://read.pudn.com/downloads157/sourc ... ts%202.PDF

Hello all,

for those who have difficulties with the hardware here is the schematic and PCB layout
including silks for the IR-TX-RX shown in post #57.
IRTXRX-v2.1.pdf.zip
(139.12 KiB) Downloaded 994 times
The version has some slight changes over the photos from #57 to improve the IR-receiver.
I've five of these modules running atm so i can say it is proven to work.

You may use different IR LED types. Beware, you have to adapt R4 and R5 to your LED type!
Most LEDs can take 20..30 mA. As they are pulse driven here they can take much more, but
be carefull.

The PCB is designed for four LEDs to give high IR power. You may ommit one of the paths, for example D1/D2/R4.

R3 is optional, some FET transistor types need it, some not. So i designed it into the PCB
The IRLL014 does not need it.

For easy flashing RX, TX and reset are lead out to pins.
The jumper P6 gives GND for flashing and allows jumpering to flash mode.

Happy tinkering :)

Regards
Shardan

How about an IR Repeater ?

Then it doesn't matter about protocols , does it ?

Many of us have lots of ESP's that we can put around the house and utilise a common receiver to control
appliances in a different room.

Or am I being too presumptuous?
ESP32, Arduino's,Raspberry Pi's, ESP8266's, Nextion's, Sonoff's, LightWaveRF's, RFXCom 433, and a headache
And a HackRF One, as a present to myself.

Hey there wow ! lots of work has been done since a few months ago i love it!. I already use this plugin for some IR LED RGB candles. have them working great. However I just bought a Future 40watt air purifier and decoded the signals exactly the same way i did in my original post for the candles
https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/vie ... php?t=2761

however.. this is not identified as any standard protocol by the arduino or the raspberry pi.
It does give me a hex but it wont work as it doesn't know the protocol. So I thought id check back up on this and sure enough its been updated. However I am having trouble with even just compiling it. then i was going to use the raw output to see if i could get it working
I have taken your for Gusps that has seemed to be updated 26 days ago and i updated the IR libraries. is that the final version? because i get errors when trying to compile it and i have updated to the latest IR library as well
here is what I am getting. Suggestions?

Edit: i am an idiot. i right click saved as on the new plugin and it saved the htm file not the plugin... however still having trouble with compiling
now i get this, and it never finishes compiling just stays and does this forever

That java stuff seems weird.
I remember not having any problems compiling using Atom following the guide that's on the site: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... Platformio

I'll double check everything in your case.

yeah I thought that was weird too. I removed the plugin and it compiled fine
I put back my original ir library as well

I will try again tonight starting from scratch. I copied the raw code from github into notepad then saved it
could have been tired not sure

I will also follow thi guide

Well I got the ir plugin working. I just gave up on compiling and downloaded the easy esp mega 2.0.0 dev8 branch bin file and flashed....
now I am a big confused
I was using the excel doc provided back a page and i am not getting anything to work main because it looks like my IR code is a lot shorter than what you guys have

While yes I would like to know the answer. More importantly I would like to know how you figured it out with the info below as I have other buttons I want to convert. This is pulled from my arduino using irrecdumpv2

Code: Select all


Encoding  : UNKNOWN
Code      : A32AB931 (32 bits)
Timing[23]: 
     +1350, - 300     +1350, - 300     + 550, -1150     +1350, - 300
     +1350, - 350     + 500, -1150     + 550, -1100     + 550, -1150
     + 500, -1150     + 550, -1100     + 550, -1150     +1350
unsigned int  rawData[23] = {1350,300, 1350,300, 550,1150, 1350,300, 1350,350, 500,1150, 550,1100, 550,1150, 500,1150, 550,1100, 550,1150, 1350};  // UNKNOWN A32AB931


I also added a receiver on the esp and piped it into domoticz dummy text to track the stuff it was sending. Here it is, 4140943054 is the most common which is similar to what I was getting with my arduino. Not in a sense of the same number but it was not the same every single time and there was a common them of 1 out of maybe 3-4 times I hit the button it would be A32AB931 or in domoticz case 4140943054. I dont know what this number is. is this hex? just a number? if so how would I send it?

Try this URL:

7VJVPO1VSVUE0E0E0E0E0E0FV es de Base32 if this sequence: 111111111001111111110011100000001111111110011111111100111000000011100000001110000000111000000011100000001110000000111111111
having 170 and 150 as pulse and silence respectively.

If it doesn't work, make sure you have a 38khz sender. If not, change that number to your khz control.
Other thing to try is to be closer to the decive.

Let us know if it work.

Unfortunately that did not work. :( I moved my device within about half a meter to the IR. I have confirmed that it actually sending via putting the led next to the receiver and it does catch something.
It is 38khz sender and receiver. I have no clue if my remote is though however based on googling A32AB931
This code is an on off switch for a heater which is the same on off for my air purifier
http://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/mb ... d.cgi?9724
and another thread confirmed it was 38 khz
https://arduino.stackexchange.com/quest ... ote-heater
this is not definitive proof that my remote is 38khz but it at least seems plasible

how did you calculate the 170 and 150 pulse? I dont see that anywhere in the raw data? also how did you come up with the binary? I realize you probably took the raw and converted it somehow but how? once I have the binary I can easily use a base32 converter online

I have don't understand extrapolate a RAW data from IR transmitter.
I have try to receive a IR code with a P016 plugin "Infrared Receiv - TSOP4838". In house I have TSOP4136 ad I have used this, the difference is the IR frequencies. TSOP4838 38kHz TSOP4136 36kHz. I hope isn't a problem.

When I push the on/off button of the IR transmitter the ESPEasy receive 2 codes HEX:
800ff and ffffffff

I don't understand how convert this HEX values to a RAW for sending the code with a ESPEasy.
http://<ip address>/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,code,kHZ,Pulse Len, Blank Len
kHZ = 38 It's correct?

Hi bobbybeans,

The IR code is just a few PULSE and BLANK sequence, where PULSE is a 38khz burst of IR light, and BLANK is no light at all. Viewing at your rawData array, you can see that your remote is sending 1350 millisecs of PULSE and then 300 ms of BLANK, then again 1350 of PULSE and the 300 of BLANK, 550 of PULSE, and 1150 of BLANK, and so on.
When you know the Protocol that is being used, you can "compress" the PULSE and BLANK data according to the protocol spec, which can be written with a few chars.
The RAW option I've added to the _P035_IRTX plugin, aims to address the situation where you can't decode or don't know the used protocol. If you were able to just send in the ESPEasy URL your array (1350,300, 1350,300, 550,1150, 1350,300, 1350,350, 500,1150, 550,1100, 550,1150, 500,1150, 550,1100, 550,1150, 1350), your remote signal will most likely to work ok. BUT, that URL has some limit on the length, being necesary to reduce it as much as possible.
That's why that array of PULSE and BLANK will be written in base32.

Take a look at this post #62 : https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/vie ... 030#p14030

The key is to find the best length for PULSE and BLANK. If your array were 1400 and 500 only, you should use 1400 for pulse and 500 for blank (that's too obvious). So the binary expression will be "10". If you choose 700 and 500, then the binary will be: "110".
But, when you have in your array different values, the selected values should be the closest higher multiplier possible. That's why I choose 170 and 150. Of course you could lower those values, but the resulting B32 will be longer and maybe you reach the URL limit. (I don't recall what it is).

Seeing at the resulting binary I gave you, I saw that the first sequence of "1" count 9 instead of 8. 8 will be more accurate (8*170=1360). Maybe that's the reason why it doesn't work. This could mean a bug in the Python script.
You could also use the Excel converter the other member uploaded a few post earlier and see what's the result.

Then, after you have the binary sequence, this is just writter as base32 as a compression method to be less in length for the URL.

Have a look at it, check the Python script, and ask me if you need more detail.
Regards.
Gustavo.

Hi angelusb,
You need to grab the PULSE and BLANK timings to be able to generate the RAW data.
To do this, I use the http://dangerousprototypes.com/docs/USB_Infrared_Toy
Other people use IRrecvDump for Arduino.
The P016 is not good to get the timings for unkown protocols.

After you have those values, you can use the Python script or the Excel sheet to generate de Base32 chars.

Let me know about any doubts.
Gustavo.

I'm now struggling with this as well... Trying to get a Bionaire Space Heater to do my bidding.

I took a hack on the spreadsheet and added some code to do the Bin to Base32 in the sheet and used GCD to look for Pulse and Space... (my work is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... AB3Kbq7vWU)

My data looks like this (captured from ESP8266 IRrecvDumpV2):
unsigned int rawData[47] = {1300,400, 1300,400, 450,1250, 1300,400, 1300,450, 450,1300, 450,1250, 450,1250, 450,1250, 1300,450, 450,1250, 450,7850, 1300,400, 1300,400, 450,1250, 1300,450, 1300,450, 450,1250, 450,1250, 450,1250, 450,1250, 1300,450, 450,1250, 450}; // UNKNOWN DE7C1C3
It's obvious that the pulse and space are all multiples of 50 (could that be the limit of timing resolution on the ESP8266?), GCD confirms that multiple for this data.
Pulse (Greatest Common Denominator) 50
Blank/Space GCD 50

Binary String 11111111111111111111111111000000001111111111111111111111111100000000111111111000000000000000000000000011111111111111111111111111000000001111111111111111111111111100000000011111111100000000000000000000000000111111111000000000000000000000000011111111100000000000000000000000001111111110000000000000000000000000111111111111111111111111110000000001111111110000000000000000000000000111111111000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000011111111111111111111111111000000001111111111111111111111111100000000111111111000000000000000000000000011111111111111111111111111000000000111111111111111111111111110000000001111111110000000000000000000000000111111111000000000000000000000000011111111100000000000000000000000001111111110000000000000000000000000111111111111111111111111110000000001111111110000000000000000000000000111111111

Length < 2048 chars Should be ok (http says the max size of path+query string must be less than 2KB)
URL http://esp4/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,FVVV ... V,38,50,50
The trouble with this is the get request to the esp4 doesn't give a response, eventually curl times out. A smaller payload does go through and ESP2.0.0-dev8 echos back the binary string (so I know the bin2base32 code works okay).

Obviously, pulse and blank have to be bigger than 50 to result in a small enough payload that the ESP doesn't choke. Not really sure how to make to make them bigger without giving a float to the ESP for Pulse/Blank. How much fuzzing does IR typically tolerate for pulse/blank intervals? (+/- 25%?)

Try using 1250 for pulse and 400 for space.
It seems there's only 3 values there. The other one ~7500.
That should reduce the b32 length.

Yup okay, 400 works for both... So I guess the at the receiving end the signal is being processed as roughly a multiple of the pulse length (~ the min value)... that makes sense.

Thanks for your help.

Gustavo helped me, let me see if I can help you a bit... :)
I suppose the code for IR transmitter with ESPEasy is NEC 800FF -> http://<ip address>/control?cmd=IRSEND,NEC,800FF
It's correct?
The syntax as documented suggests you need to provide the number of bits on the end of that.

I'm guessing you are holding the button down for a while and triggering a repeat (or your doing it while someone else is messing with a different remote in the same room). 0xFFFFFF in NEC means repeat last command. Try tapping the once button quickly, wait for a bit and do it again. Do that a couple of times until you see an UNKNOWN code that is corresponding to your taps.

Make a copy of the spreadsheet I posted, paste your rawData over mine, mess with the pulse/blank values and you'll see the binary string and base32 strings get generated.

Then its a good idea to emit the payload back into your receiver and see if you get the same UNKNOWN code value.

Yup it does indeed... The range is only about 3 ft, so I'll have to figure out if I can boost it a bit for what I want to do, but if I hold it dead on and send the url "http://esp/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,ET3N8 ... 38,400,400", power toggles on.

Gus
Thanks for the wonderful detailed explanation that all makes sense now (i believe)
so just one clarification, the two numbers you get are the end of it, are the averages of the pulse /blanks just to help shorten it?
I have looked at both the spreadsheet and the new one created on page 8 and both seem fairly consistent however no luck

i am getting similar short lengths that you described. based on what you found here are you suggesting i should increase the rawlen? as this might be why mine is not working because it seems very very short comparatively to everyone elses

I looked into the IRremoteInt.h and i can't find RAWLEN or rawlen. I find one reference to it being "uint8_t rawlen; // counter of entries in rawbuf"

Edit ermm... not sure maybe i read that wrong

Don't really know... based on the few codes I've captured that data looks kind of screwed up... In the raw data I have, the first number in the code is 2 or 3 times the size pulse value... that rawData[11] is so small you could use 50 for the pulse and blank...

I duplicated the sheet on my spreadsheet and put that in and it spit out this: http://esp4/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,VU03 ... V,38,50,50 .... You can try it, but I'd think your actual code more likely starts in the rawData[100]

I have try increase the rawlen in the arduino library to uint64_t but the message it's same "IR code too long. Edit IRremoteInt.h and increase RAWLEN".
I don't now. It's probable the DAIKIN code too long the 64bit?

I don't understand why, but in the IRremoteESP8266 library it's presents a DAIKIN sample IR command and in the _P35_IRTX.ino the DAIKIN code is not integrated.
see below
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("NEC")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendNEC(IrCode, IrBits);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("JVC")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendJVC(IrCode, IrBits, 2);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("RC5")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendRC5(IrCode, IrBits);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("RC6")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendRC6(IrCode, IrBits);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("SAMSUNG")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendSAMSUNG(IrCode, IrBits);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("SONY")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendSony(IrCode, IrBits);
if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("PANASONIC")) Plugin_035_irSender->sendPanasonic(IrBits, IrCode);

in the example directory of IRremoteESP8266 library I'm find the "TurnOnDaikinAC" example:
#include <IRDaikinESP.h>

IRDaikinESP dakinir(D1);

void setup(){
dakinir.begin();
Serial.begin(115200);
}


void loop(){
Serial.println("Sending...");

// Set up what we want to send. See IRDaikinESP.cpp for all the options.
dakinir.on();
dakinir.setFan(1);
dakinir.setMode(DAIKIN_COOL);
dakinir.setTemp(25);
dakinir.setSwingVertical(0);
dakinir.setSwingHorizontal(0);

// Now send the IR signal.
dakinir.send();

delay(5000);
}

It's possible integrate IRDaikinESP.h in the _P35_IRTX.ino?
It's possible integrate with if (IrType.equalsIgnoreCase("DAIKIN")) Plugin_035_irSender_DAIKIN->Daikin.send(command); ?
command: IRDaikinESP.on, IRDaikinESP.setFan(value), IRDaikinESP.setMode(char), IRDaikinESP.setTemp(value), IRDaikinESP.setSwingVertical(value), IRDaikinESP.setSwingHorizontal(value)

I'm not a programmer :? and I don't know if really possible integrate this function. Do you have Ideas? :?:

I suppose the code for IR transmitter with ESPEasy is NEC 800FF -> http://<ip address>/control?cmd=IRSEND,NEC,800FF
It's correct?
The syntax as documented suggests you need to provide the number of bits on the end of that.
another question:
I have tried whit a DAIKIN conditioner IR TX and the message received is:

The 32bits code is B3E2CB06? -> http://<ip address>/control?cmd=IRSEND,RAW,B3E2CB06 ... and how punt in the KHz, in the Pulse Len and in the Blank Len?
I'm guessing you are holding the button down for a while and triggering a repeat (or your doing it while someone else is messing with a different remote in the same room). 0xFFFFFF in NEC means repeat last command. Try tapping the once button quickly, wait for a bit and do it again. Do that a couple of times until you see an UNKNOWN code that is corresponding to your taps.

Make a copy of the spreadsheet I posted, paste your rawData over mine, mess with the pulse/blank values and you'll see the binary string and base32 strings get generated.

Then its a good idea to emit the payload back into your receiver and see if you get the same UNKNOWN code value.


I have try with another IRremote library for Arduino and tray with dedicated IRecvDump. This is the result:

Hi, I have try the "TurnOnDaikinAC" example of library IRremoteESP8266 It's perfect.
This is the example:
#include <IRDaikinESP.h>

IRDaikinESP dakinir(5); //D1 GPIO5

void setup(){
dakinir.begin();
Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop(){
Serial.println("Sending...");

// Set up what we want to send. See IRDaikinESP.cpp for all the options.
dakinir.on(); //dakinir.off();
dakinir.setFan(0); //0=AUTO, 1-5 Fan vel
dakinir.setMode(DAIKIN_COOL); //DAIKIN_COOL, DAIKIN_HEAT, DAIKIN_FAN, DAIKIN_AUTO, DAIKIN_DRY
dakinir.setTemp(25);
dakinir.setSwingVertical(1); //0= off, 1= on
dakinir.setSwingHorizontal(0); //0= off, 1= on

// Now send the IR signal.
dakinir.send();

delay(5000);
}

I have not idea then I ask you: In the _P35_IRTX.ino it's possible integrate the DAIKIN function of the IRDaikinESP.h?

thanks

Well... it is possible for sure. But it would take some time, obviously. Maybe it should be a differente plugin.

Good Morning,

My goal was to control my air conditioning system from Mitsubishi via FHEM with IR and EspEasy. I have already managed years ago with the Raspberry my system (codes then about Lirc) later I wanted to try it with Mysensors, now I wanted to do it simply via Wifi.


Problem was and is that the remote control (FB) only outputs these RAW codes. There are different approaches here (FHEM Forum) and also in the EspEasy forum, but I did not go further or to the goal. My FB "remembers" the old settings. That is, I really need only the On or Off button. With On starts it with 22 ° -AutoSpeedFan-3D-air direction.


Since I am only hobbyist, I need a way (code) to implement this easily and comprehensibly. I would like to briefly present this for all who are looking for a way to search RAW code. Maybe you can use it for yourself.


My code, which I had first transferred from Raspberry to Mysensors, looked like this:

Code: Select all

#include <IRremote.h>

IRsend irsend;
unsigned int an[180] = {3250,1450,500,300,450,1100,500,300,450,350,450,1100,500,300,450,1100,500,300,500,300,450,1100,500,1050,500,1100,500,300,450,1100,450,350,500,1050,500,1100,450,1100,500,300,450,300,500,300,500,300,450,1100,500,1100,450,300,500,1100,450,1100,450,350,500,300,450,1100,500,300,500,300,450,1100,450,350,450,300,500,1100,450,1100,500,300,500,1050,500,1100,450,1100,450,1150,450,1100,450,1150,450,1100,500,1050,500,1100,450,300,500,300,500,300,450,350,450,300,500,300,450,350,450,300,500,1100,500,1050,500,1100,450,1100,500,300,450,350,450,1100,450,1100,500,1100,500,300,450,300,450,350,500,1050,500,1100,500,300,450,300,500,300,450,350,450,1100,500,1050,500,300,500,300,450,1100,500,1100,500,1050,450,1150,450,300,500,300,500,1050,500,1100,500,300,450,300,500,300,500,};

      }
  }
  return success;
}




Now I can control via: http: // IP / control? Cmd = IRSEND, Kliman or http: // IP / control? Cmd = IRSEND,

I know this is not the big solution but for me a sufficient success, since we make more settings also not over the FB.

  }
  return success;
}




Now I can control via: http: // IP / control? Cmd = IRSEND, Kliman or http: // IP / control? Cmd = IRSEND,

I know this is not the big solution but for me a sufficient success, since we make more settings also not over the FB.

Hi take a look at https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/vie ... f=2&t=1915

ToniA have add Mitsubishi support. I don't use FHEM but with his plugin you can control via cmd or mqtt.

Ok and thank you for this Tipp. I have change to ToniA integration "HeatpumIR". It works fine after a while as well with FHEM.

Thank you.

Re: IR Transmitter ?

#99 Post by brainhunt » 02 Jul 2017, 13:33

I need some help because it seems I am missing something.

I have created an IR transmitter and an IR receiver with two ESP8266 chips and of course the required additional hardware. I have installed esp easy (2) at both ESP's and it seems to work fine. I have tested it with my Samsung tv, reading the IR signal with the receiver and then sending it with the transmitter.

However my ultimate goal is to control a Sony receiver (old version, working with an RM-U242 remote control) in the garage that controls the music in the garden. However, I can read the IR code from the remote control (for instance IR : Code 841 - Type: 4 - Bits: 12 for switching to the tuner) but when I send that same command to the transmitter (http://esp_ip/control?cmd=IRSEND,SONY,0x841,12), nothing happens??? :(

I have fixed the IR receiver next to the transmitter and it shows exactly the same result (IR : Code 841 - Type: 4 - Bits: 12) as from the remote control. The receiver does by the way respond to the signal from the remote control. I have send the signal from various distances at the receiver, but still without any result.

Anyone any ideas/suggestions?

I think I'm a bit closer to a solution. Some additional searching delivered that the Sony signal needs to be send twice or three times with a delay of about 40ms. Unfortunately, sending the command through http is too slow and I don't see an option to repeat the command automatically at the ESP itself. Rules seem to offer only delays of seconds, not msecs.

Any thoughts/suggestions? Otherwise I will probably drop espeasy in this case and replace it by an arduino core with more dedicated ir pacakge.
