Panasonic AC with Global Cache format

[AnalysIR]

A user sent in the following support request:

I am having trouble with a new Panasonic AC unit. I have been trying for some time to get IR codes working with my Nodemcu. Previously I was using a different brand of aircon in my old apartment, it worked perfect. The new place I have the fans working but all the Panasonic Aircons dont work. I use GC codes in a test program as bellow

#include <Arduino.h>
#endif
#include <IRremoteESP8266.h>
#include <IRsend.h>

// Codes are in Global Cache format less the emitter ID and request ID.
// These codes can be found in GC's Control Tower database.

I will also attach a session log from AnalysIR, I would really appreciate your help, Thank you.

[AnalysIR]

The first thing to check, is if the sendGC can handle long requests, with or without compression.

I checked the esp library, and it does not handle compression.


I then re-imported the GC signal back into AnalysIR, and it was truncated.

From memory, there is a limit on signal length in GC uncompressed format. Beyond that length the signal must be compressed.

I will check into that and revert. If so, I will add a pop-up message explaining that in AnalysIR. However, we may not allow the longer uncompressed messages as they are out of spec and should be compressed. The problem for you is that the ESP library doesn't support compression.

Given the resources available on the ESPs, it may be better for you to just use sendRAW for the longer signals, storing the signals in flash.

There are also example of how you can send signals like these from the HEX value, which would be much better than compression...check out our blog.

I will look into this further and revert. In the meantime please test using sendRAW, to verify the signals are OK.

[AnalysIR]

My suspicions were correct & these longer signals may not play with GC equimment without compression.

So I have updated AnalysIR to provide a warning that the longer iuncompressed signals may not work with GC equipment & that it would be better to use the compression option, which is hte defaut on AnalysIR.

This update will be included in the next 'dev' release.

Here is the output for your signals in GC format & 'cleaned', to try out

Thank you Chris,
I will try the the cleaned GC code shortly. I ended up using the RAW ir code, which worked ok. I also found on these new Panasonic aircon the range seems to be a lot less then the other brand. Is there anyway to boost the range?

Thanks once again for your help

[AnalysIR]

yes, the cleaned signals above should have a better range

We also have 2 shelds for ESP8266/ESP32 IN OUR WEBHOP
All of our MakeIR modules have programmable IR power, for better range etc.


If you want to build you own, there are examples on our blog

I think I have the SendIR, advanced infrared emitter module, which is very powerful in most cases

Ok the cleaned signal that you provided makes night and day difference to the raw codes I was using in terms of range! May i ask how you cleaned the signals?

[AnalysIR]

You can use the 'clean; feature in AnalysIR under the powertools menu or set the clean checkbox when exporting.

Our SendIR module, is also very gook.

I believe I did that, sorry I guess i meant how do i get the full GC uncompressed code like you did, as when i do the batch/convert it truncates the code . How did you get the full uncompressed GC code. Sorry for my bad english...

We made a change and it will appear in the next 'dev' release.

In the meantime you can email me your signals (once) & can send them back to you.
