Reverse engineering Air Conditioner IR Remote control protocol
soruce : http://www.instructables.com/id/Reverse-engineering-of-an-Air-Conditioning-control/?ALLSTEPS Hi, this is my first instructable, hope you like it. To get into electronics I chose a home automation project: a system allowing me to control and program both air conditioner units in my flat. In this instructable I show how I got to understand the IR protocol. Material: - Panasonic inverter air conditioner remote control - Raspberry Pi with raspbian and lirc installed - 38kHz Infrared (IR) Receiver Module (for instance RadioShack Catalog #: 276-640) - breadboard The raspberry Pi is useful in my setup to analyse the incoming IR signals, but also to host other components on the global project. Any other computer equipped with an IR receiver could do. An Arduino could also output the needed information using the IRremote library (https://github.com/shirriff/Arduino-IRremote). This library will be used to control the air conditioners in the end. The method used here could work
