Encode an NEC IR command into code for Tuya ZS06/ZS08/TS1201 | |
Usage: encode_nec("<four bytes in hex, two bytes of address followed by two bytes of command>") | |
If your address and/or command is just one byte (8 bits), append the complement of the byte after it to make it two bytes. | |
Example: | |
encode_nec("04fb08f7") // encodes nec address 0x04 and command 0x08 | |
See: | |
https://www.sbprojects.net/knowledge/ir/nec.php | |

https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/issues/11633 | |
Tuya ZS06 uses a custom encoding of ir codes. I figured enough of the encoding to generate arbitary ir codes, but there are additional encoding features to save bytes that I haven't figured out. | |
The encoding is base64 encoding of any number of concatenated command blocks, where each block is: | |
- 1 byte of [length]-1 (length <= 32 bytes is supported) | |
- [length] number of bytes of little endian 16 bit integers | |
- Each integer describes the length of time in microseconds to keep the tramsitter's current on/off state, before flipping | |
The initial state is on, so the first 16 bit integer describes on time, the second off time, the third on time again, etc. | |

function encode_nec(hex) { | |
function le(x) { | |
x = x & 0xffff; | |
return [ x & 0xff, x >> 8 ]; | |
} | |
let output = [ 4-1, ...le(9000), ...le(4500) ]; | |
for (const x of Buffer.from(hex, 'hex')) { | |
output.push(32-1); | |
for (let i = 0; i < 8; i++) { | |
output.push(...le(560)); | |
if (x & (1 << i)) { | |
output.push(...le(2250-560)); | |
} else { | |
output.push(...le(1125-560)); | |
} | |
} | |
} | |
output.push(2-1, ...le(560)); | |
return Buffer.from(new Uint8Array(output)).toString('base64'); | |
} |
I found a description of the broadlink encoding here: https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/pl03cj/add_custom_codes_to_broadlink/hc8n0dj
Looks like it's also encoding the duration of the pulses, so you don't have to decoded it fully to nec commands, instead you can decode it to pulse duration, and encode it for tuya like I described in the comment above (please do note for tuya the max length of a block is 32 bytes).
I tried to test it with Tuya TS1201 for DUNE HD Player and failed. @andrewcchen, could you please prompt me where I was wrong?
The documentation of Dune HD player says:
All Dune HD IR Remotes use NEC IR protocol. Different generations of Remotes use different NEC IR customer codes:
...
Previous generation (Premium IR Remote + discontinued models): 00 BF
...
IR HEX codes (latest Remote models use CF CF instead 00 BF):
...
POWER 00 BF 43 BC
I called the script with "00bf32bc" and it returned "AygjlBEfMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAI1AjACmgYfMAKaBjACmgYwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAKaBjACNQIfMAI1AjACNQIwApoGMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAI1AjACmgYBMAI=". I sent it but DUNE HD Player did not respond. I tried "cfcf43bc" and "01be43bc", but it did not help as well.
The sequence generated by the script does not look like the sequence I captured: "B08jRhFwAvsB4BUDAVwG4A0DQDfgAxtAD+ADA0Ab4AcPQBPAAwf7AXACXAZwAg==".
@mak-42 Some codes online have bit endian order swapped (per byte), try 00df2cd3
The captured sequences uses commands that I haven't managed to decoded to encode more efficiently.
Thank you for the answer. I tried "00df2cd3" (AygjlBEfMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAKaBjACmgYwAjUCMAKaBjACmgYfMAI1AjACNQIwApoGMAKaBjACNQIwApoGMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwAjUCMAI1AjACmgYwAjUCMAKaBjACmgYBMAI=), "3f3f2cd3" (AygjlBEfMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAI1AjACNQIfMAI1AjACNQIwApoGMAKaBjACNQIwApoGMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwAjUCMAI1AjACmgYwAjUCMAKaBjACmgYBMAI=) and "08d72cd3" (AygjlBEfMAI1AjACNQIwAjUCMAKaBjACNQIwAjUCMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwApoGMAI1AjACmgYwAjUCMAKaBjACmgYfMAI1AjACNQIwApoGMAKaBjACNQIwApoGMAI1AjACNQIfMAKaBjACmgYwAjUCMAI1AjACmgYwAjUCMAKaBjACmgYBMAI=). The last one is a representation "01be34bc" used by very old DUNE players. Unfortunately, the player didn't respond for any of the sequences.
Just used this to convert the Loxjie D30/A30 DAC IR codes and worked like a charm, thanks!
I've added this line to the bottom of the script for easier usage:
console.log(encode_nec(process.argv));
Then copy pasted it onto https://stackblitz.com/edit/node-trcord?file=index.js

for anyone landing here: I've managed to understand the weird compression scheme used by this thing!
I've documented everything here:
https://gist.github.com/mildsunrise/1d576669b63a260d2cff35fda63ec0b5
and also provided a function to decompress the signal in case someone wants to investigate what's in their learnt codes.
Do you know if it would be possible to somehow convert Broadlink B64 commands to Tuya ZS06/ZS08/TS1201 commands? I tried using an online convert but haven't found a way to get Broadlink commands into NEC format for me to then use your code to convert it to work with the Tuya IR device.
Would be handy as I have a fair amount of Broadlink RM codes in Home Assistant already. It would mean I wouldn't have to get out all the remotes and teach the Tuya device the IR codes.
