Problem with Zanussi A/C
Version/revision of the library used
2.8.6
Describe the bug
I try to power on a Zanussi A/C (made by GREE). I use a pair of 38kHz transmitter and receiver.
I tried to use CommonAcControl example and it didn't work.
Then I tried to dump messages from the original remote.
When I dump them by using resultToHumanReadableBasic I get two possible options:
Protocol : GREE
Code : 0x0009205000C000F0 (64 Bits)
Protocol : GREE
Code : 0x0809605000C00070 (64 Bits)
When I dump them with resultToSourceCode - raw data is always different (423 bits always) and state has two options too:
uint8_t state[8] = {0x00, 0x09, 0x20, 0x50, 0x00, 0xC0, 0x00, 0xF0};
uint8_t state[8] = {0x08, 0x09, 0x60, 0x50, 0x00, 0xC0, 0x00, 0x70};
I tried to put these values into IRSendDemo like this:
#include <IRsend.h>
const uint16_t kIrLed = 4; // ESP8266 GPIO pin to use. Recommended: 4 (D2).
IRsend irsend(kIrLed); // Set the GPIO to be used to sending the message.
// Example of data captured by IRrecvDumpV2.ino
uint16_t rawData[423] = {9014, 4466, 674, 554, 658, 550, 650, 552, 652, 554, 650, 554, 652, 552, 652, 114,

But it didn't work too. I tried to power up my transmitter by using breadboard power module with 12V-1A power adapter (I put a switch on a 5V output option). Still no effect.
Where do I make a mistake? What is wrong? Thanks in advance.
Expected behaviour
Power on A/C.
What brand/model IR demodulator are you using?
https://aliexpress.com/item/1005003804455377.html?sku_id=12000027223801982
Circuit diagram and hardware used (if applicable)
GND->GND VCC->5v DAT->GPIO23
I have followed the steps in the Troubleshooting Guide & read the FAQ
Yes
Has this library/code previously worked as expected for you?
No
How is the transistor connected to drive the transmitter IR LED?, Do you have any circuit diagram of that "transmitt module"?
irsend.sendRaw(rawData, 423, 38);You forgot to change the size here.
I fixed it and it still doesnt't work.
I tried to use DumbIRRepeater and SmartIRRepeater examples. It says that retransmits data but my A/C doesn't react.
Then I modified DumbIRRepeater to this:

#include <IRrecv.h>
#include <IRremoteESP8266.h>
#include <IRutils.h>

#ifdef ARDUINO_ESP32C3_DEV
const uint16_t kRecvPin = 22; // 14 on a ESP32-C3 causes a boot loop.
#else // ARDUINO_ESP32C3_DEV
const uint16_t kRecvPin = 22;

const uint16_t kIrLedPin = 23;

const uint32_t kBaudRate = 115200;
// As this program is a special purpose capture/resender, let's use a larger
// than expected buffer so we can handle very large IR messages.
// i.e. Up to 512 bits.
const uint16_t kCaptureBufferSize = 1024;
// kTimeout is the Nr. of milli-Seconds of no-more-data before we consider a
// message ended.
const uint8_t kTimeout = 50; // Milli-Seconds
// kFrequency is the modulation frequency all messages will be replayed at.

@NiKiZe , I am not sure that there is a transistor here but I don't know a lot about electronic.
Both receiver and transmitter have LED's on their boards. They are connected to a data-line as far as I understand. And both of them blink in sequence with DumbIRRepeater example. So it looks like they work.
I did not see any driver transistor on that board, which is why I was asking. Since without it you won't have enough "power" on the transmitter LED, or at least not unless it is right next to the receiver.

5 volts from 5 volts pin on a esp32 wouldn't be enough? O_o I thought that as far as I power vcc pin of transmitter with this power pin - it will work...
Oh...I think, I see now. VCC pin on transmitter doesn't has a line! It is useless!
