Fujitsu FGL Type A Bus Protocol: decoding an air-conditioner wired remote
Fujitsu FGL Type A Bus Protocol reconstructs BWR wired-remote messages of an older Fujitsu/General air conditioner from logic-analyzer captures. Its specification records 500-baud 8E1 framing, heartbeat and command frames, and temperature and fan encoding; Python tools decode stored captures or sniff the bus live.
