The "saga" regarding AC IR Remote decoding

[arishy]

There is a LOT of talk about the issue but no solid solution so far.
If you guys cannot help, no one can. I know I am in the right place.
I used the analysIR software and I got the raw data for ON/OFF button. And as you know it is a FULL long string that contains ALL the codes for all the setting. All in one long string. And here what I want to do.
I can control the temperature (among other things), but the beauty of the temperature setting is I KNOW what I am sending.
So, If I start collecting several RAW readings ( the string is 147 numbers), how do I detect the temperature value as I am keeping everything the same.
This is the challenge that I am against, your help will be greatly appreciated
Here is the code for ON/OFF
Raw (147): 8896,-4565,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-1728,491,-1728,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-597,491,-1728,491

Hi Arishy

It looks like that IR protocol is not yet supported in AnalysIR.

If you send me a set of signals, I will add it to AnalysIR and send you the update.

So record a set of signals as follows
- Temperature from 16 degC to 30 degC (in order)
- ON & OFF signals
- some other signals on your remote.

Then send them to me using Menu->File->Save Session and I will add it in and send you an updated .ini file.

After that you will be able to use the reverse engineering tool & checksum calculator on the signals.

This is great support...I really appreciate it. Thank you and I will do it as instructed.
I have a little problem and I hope you can fixed it for me.
I am using my "old" usb ir toy as a source My laptop w10 find it difficult to select the source ...keep disappearing before I do the selection!!!
My question is how do I make "my" source as the default instead of Arduino.

I changed it in the init and it did not work. ( comPort=COM3:USB IR Toy )

Also I bought the following items and I did not use them yet !! which one you recommend to 'start" using instead of the "old" toy I am using now ???

A.IR Shield Nano, advanced infrared module
A.IR Shield ESP8266/ESP32 TRx, advanced infrared module

Best regards

By the way My AC model is
Carrier Air Conditioner Remote Control - R14E This is the remodel model number

Here it is

I found this link and I did not tested yet..I will let you know soon
