Gree greeya - change "light" to "off"

TrylobitBroccoli commented 2 years ago

I have Gree AC's at my place. Remote model number is YAN1F6. "greeya" library works, but it keeps on turning on display on my units, which I don't want. How can I change the library, so the byte responsible for light/display is off?

ToniA commented 2 years ago

You would somehow need to figure out which bit turns the light on. One way is to build a receiver, and compare the signals from remote against signals from library. See https://github.com/ToniA/Raw-IR-decoder-for-Arduino

I wonder if this could give a hint on which bit controls it: https://github.com/tomikaa87/gree-remote

Thank you for your answer. I have a receiver. My previous controller was working with Blynk and I set it up in not a very sophisticated way: I've jus saved raw timings for all the settings...

I've just tested the library that seems to work, but it produces different code and number of bits is changing each time I send the command, while my remote is always sending 64 bits.

Example of light off:

uint8_t state[8] = {0x1C, 0x0E, 0x60, 0x50, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x80};

It looks like this is the bit controlling light: uint8_t state[8] = {0x1C, 0x0E, 0x40, 0x50, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x80} uint8_t state[8] = {0x1C, 0x0E, 0x60, 0x50, 0x00, 0x40, 0x00, 0x80} 0x1C0E405000400080 0x1C0E605000400080

I'd love to decode the whole remote and it to the library, but home automation is my only my hobby and my coding skills are limited, so I'm not sure where to start... Maybe I can get somewhere a template library or example library?

Thank you in advance for your help!

ToniA commented 2 years ago

You would probably need to change this like of code: https://github.com/ToniA/arduino-heatpumpir/blob/279ae403af3fee9d1478a4a2f6632fa1b653c4bb/GreeHeatpumpIR.cpp#L242

Try setting it to 0x40 or 0x60. The upper 4 bits seem to control features TURBO,LIGHT,HEALTH,X-FAN.

TrylobitBroccoli commented 2 years ago

OK, I'd know if you can help me with that, but how can I make ESPHome use my modified file?

this is my code in the ESP8266:

climate:
  - platform: heatpumpir
    protocol: greeya
    horizontal_default: auto
    vertical_default: middle
    max_temperature: 30
    min_temperature: 16
    sensor: temperature
    name: "Office AC"

ToniA commented 2 years ago

That's a build detail of the ESPHome. I'm sorry, but I don't have any experience on it.
