    Hi @carlig833 , have you ever solved this problem? I'm facing exactly the same problem with my ISKA (so-called..) AC. I have 2 IR Blaster units of model S06-Pro. I burned one with OpenBeken and the other kept with the original Tuya. Tuya, using the SmartLife app works out of the box (identified the AC as "Whirlpool"). The OpenBeken one just keeps identifying "IR_UNKNOWN 0x0 0" - from the remote control or from the Tuya S06-Pro.

    Hi,

    I'm having an issue with the S06. I have successfully flashed OpenBeken onto the device and it works perfectly to receive the codes of 1 remote (Fan) but not able to receive the codes on my Air Conditioner (AC) remote at all.

    My understanding is that if the device is unknown, RAW IR Codes would be captured/received in the logs, and this happened with the Fan Remote IR Codes but the AC codes are not captured at all in the logs.

    Can someone help me with this? Is there a solution available or is it better to just return the remote?

    Thank you for your response.

    I think we have a fork of OBK with alternate IR library that has AC support

    Hi,

    Thanks for the quick response. Could you send the link to this forked OBK? Can't seem to find it anywhere through Google.

    Hi people

    First and foremost, I want to thank you for your contributions to the open domotics community. I read a lot, thought a lot, and pulled lots of hair out of my head.. and I could finally flash my S18 mini remote.
    Sadly my happiness waned on the testing face. Although it reads and sends IR codes successfully, it practically has no range. I don't know if I shorted something when soldering the signal wires or if there's some obscure setting to increase the transmit power.

    Thanks in advance!

    @ysdiego what is the tuya config of your device?maybe you need to set one pin to high to enable sending?
