Panavox PSS-12 INV: reconstructing air-conditioner UART control
Panavox PSS-12 INV reconstructs control of a split air conditioner through its W950 UART connector. The C++ library builds command frames, handles acknowledgments and periodic status requests, and parses 150-byte status responses; a companion specification records frame layout and commands refined through physical-unit testing.
