Resending raw IR codes with Tuya ZS06 problems

[fjuppe]

Hello,
Just got my Tuya ZS06

ITead_Sonoff_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus
Zigbee2MQTT version
1.39.1
Type of Coordinator
zStack3x0
Coordinatorrevision
20231111
Coordinator IEEE-adress
0x00124b002f8ac433
Frontend version
0.7.4
Zigbee-herdsman-converters version
19.72.0
Zigbee-herdsman version
0.55.3

I learned it with an on/off code from my TV-remote, created a file and kicked it off as a string in the Domoticz widget.

Code: Select all

mosquitto_pub -t 'zigbee2mqtt/0x0cae5ffffe9223c7/set' -m '{"ir_code_to_send":"BXsjvxE0AsABA6oGNALgCwFAF0ADQAFAB+AHA+ADAUAb4AcBQBPAA0ABwAvABwkRnnsj6Qg0Av//4AoHAgg0Ag=="}'

and it works both within Z2M and with a mosquitto_pub script triggered from Domoticz. The message payload is different for every time the button on Remote control is pressed but the stored one above always works.

Then I used the same procedure (and the same rules apply with different codestrings every from my A/C IR remote but on/off button gives a much longer code:

Code: Select all

mosquitto_pub -t 'zigbee2mqtt/0x0cae5ffffe9223c7/set' -m '{"ir_code_to_send":"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"}'

This code newer has worked ( I have tried many times with different codes.)
MQTT Explorer shows there are differences in the received string after about 200 characters.
Is there a limitation somewhere in the system that sets a limit ob the payload ??
Or is somebody aware of why this longer string can not be sent back correctly either through Z2M or moquitto/MQTT Explorer

I have read almost everything on this subject but I dont understand how to make the second codestring work in the same way as the first...

Thanks in advance for your inputs!

Yes, in the database there is a limitation set for sValue/strParam1/2 and Description to be 200 characters
I would suggest you make some scripts, and use those scripts in domoticz via Switches/Buttons (every switch van have a on/off action script)

[fjuppe]

Thank you for fast reply!

Can you suggest how to split up the longer code strings in shorter bursts, i.e. below 200 charachters? I understand this has something to do with base64 and some other coding to do but, as a newbie, I dont understand how to do this properly. In the Git Library I found something called "1901.json" which would probably match my AC but I dont have the knowledge to handle this. The goal would be to have a few Domoticz widgets for say, "On 23 degrees" another for "Off" and maybe a few more that triggers some predefined scripts like the mosquitto_sub script for TV remote above.

Thanking in anticipation!

I've bought ZS06 IR transceiver and was looking how to send mosquitto commands in domoticz without luck. But I've found logical working command I use and I want to share:

Code: Select all

script:///usr/bin/mosquitto_pub -h localhost -t "zigbee2mqtt/IR_transeiver/set" -m '{"ir_code_to_send":"xxxx"}'

Working i.e. in selector action, where IR_transeiver - device id, xxxx - your ir code. Unfortunately I cannot make virtual remote and add action codes to it's buttons. Feature like that could be useful.
