# SmartIR compatible devices

You can use [SmartIR](https://github.com/smartHomeHub/SmartIR/) to control Air Conditioner (AC) with IR remote.

For Moes UFO-R11, you will need to execute a script to convert IR codes from broadlink to Tuya.

*This integration and device require a good skill in Home Assistant configuration. Many configurations are not available from the graphical interface.*
