# Ideal Clima Nemo 1000: reconstructing local Tuya MCU control

> Ideal Clima Nemo 1000 local control replaces its Wi-Fi module with an ESP32-C3 on the CN2 connector and speaks the documented Tuya MCU UART exchange. The implementation exposes power, setpoint, mode and fan control through ESPHome or MQTT, with Python tools for passive frame decoding and bench commands.

## Requirements & limits

- **Prerequisites:** An Ideal Clima Nemo 1000, ESP32-C3 and access to its internal CN2 connector.
- **Prerequisites:** ESPHome or a PlatformIO MQTT setup; the MQTT option requires a broker.
- **Limits:** The author reports testing on Nemo 1000 only; ambient temperature and fault values are emitted at cold boot.
- **License:** MIT license.
