Combine modes #7

Open skywluke opened 4 years ago

Hi! I would like to ask you, is there any way to combine all 3 modes in one commmand? Because to my daikin not possible to send independent commands. So i think the following: 'off': cool: low: comfort: 18: 19: boost: 18: 19: Thank you very much for answer

Which 3 modes do you want to combine? cool + low + 18 - it's possible

Yes skywluke, that is my understanding for daikin and LG at least. When you send a command from an AC remove, it sends all modes in one blast. For example: 24C, fan low, current time, timer length, swing. All sent as one string/blast. 24C, fan high, current time, timer length, swing would be a different string. It doesn't send multiple commands for each state/mode you want to update

So I wonder how this app could work with one code per mode/state. Unless I am getting this completely wrong. I have searched for documentation on how AC manufacturers create their IR strings but haven't found anything yet.
