ESPHome adds boost, sleep, eco, comfort and activity presets to compatible Daikin infrared air-conditioner controls, along with temperature choices in half-degree Celsius steps. Receiving a command from the original remote updates the selected preset too.
Contributor opcod3 makes boost return to the ordinary setting after 20 minutes, matching the end of the unit’s powerful mode. That timing follows changes made through ESPHome, the remote and settings restored when the device starts. This is opcod3’s first ESPHome contribution, reviewed by J. Nick Koston.
