Hi!!
First of all happy to see this project revived. For anyone coming in from a web search note that this SmartIR repo is not the "original one" as that has been unattended for a while, this is a fork with many changes and the information of this post probably only applies to this version.
So, I'd like to have a guide on how to setup an UFOR11 remote for an AC with custom codes. I struggled with this a whole afternoon so hopefully it saves some time for the next one.
Prerequisites:
Steps:
To get the mqtt topic you can subscribe with mosquitto installed in a pc to the broker (mosquitto_sub -v -h broker_ip -p 1883 -u your_user -P your_password -t '#') and then trigger learning in the remote using home assistant (or you could try replacing 'Mando IR 1' with the id of your ir blaster as shown in zigbee2mqtt, I guess it might work).
If you are creating one yourself this is the simplest version just copy the content and adjust the values (manufacturer, supported models, and each of the commands).
To get the commands just:
As a final note, there are swing modes, heat_cold mode, fan speeds... but you will need to capture each code individually for each mode in each temperature (i.e. if in fanModes I add 'High' on top of the existing 'auto', I would need to capture double the number of codes shown here).
