Samsung AC remote

Hi,

I am trying to switch on/off a Samsung AC through Arduino. I looked at Ken Shirriff's library (not yet used it) but could not find anything specific to Samsung.

Please advise how I can proceed with controlling the Samsung air conditioner. Is there a library available for controlling Samsung air conditioners? Is there a separate IR configuration I have to use for Samsung - like a specific IR light, a pair of IRs, etc.

Does the remote have separate on/off buttons? You can jumper a remote button with a transistor.

No, there is only one button to do both. To jumper the button with transistor, as in opening the remote and hooking the circuit directly with Arduino? Thought of reserving this as a last option as I have not done anything like this before :(. I will give this a try if this would be the only possible solution.

Is that not a generic one (Sony protocol?)? The Samsung remote I have has two IR LEDs, so trying to find out if there is a library/config setup example that I can try to go in the right direction.
