Can we receive IR signal. I want to build 2 way control for my AC #392

I see that we can control our IR device well. But if we can find solution to receive ir signal i think we can sync remote state with hass So can we do it, and how to do it Thank so much

I'm not following, but assume are you requesting an enhancement for a particular IR device?

I'm not sure but it sounds to me like he wants to put the IR blaster next to the A/C unit so when you use the remote control to change the A/C the blaster will also pick up and report the signal.

The blasters really are not designed to receive continuously like that, but I don't see why you couldn't fake it by creating a loop that puts it back into 'learn' mode every time it receives something. Running the learned signal through IRRemoteControlDevice.pulses_to_nec(...) or IRRemoteControlDevice.pulses_to_hex(...) should get you a usable code you can match against.

So does it have local api for receiving hex signal ?
