 **A:** Unfortunately, there is no guarantee until you try it. The best way is to check the user manual. Usually, if the AC supports ESP modules, there will be information about which application the native module works with. So far, all models that work with smartAir2, hOn, and EVO applications also work with this component, although sometimes additional tuning may be required.

-**A:** On AC side there is a conector ususally marked as CN34 or CN35 it is a 4 pin connector with pins marked as RXD, TXD, GND, +5V. It is 4 pin 5264 molex connector. On ESP side used USB Type-A connector (it is not real USB just UART with USB connector) or JST SM04B-GHS-TB connector.

-**A:** This warning means that the AC denied the control command. It can happen in two cases: either the AC is using a different type of control or the structure of the status packet is different. You can try using the `control_method: SET_SINGLE_PARAMETER`. If that doesn't help, you can try to figure out the size of different parts of the status packet using this method: `Haier protocol overview <./docs/protocol_overview.rst>`_.

 1. **Slow AC Response:** Your AC unit is responding slowly to requests, consider increasing the `response_timeout` parameter from its default value of 200 ms to 400 ms.
 2. **Overloaded ESP:** Your ESP module is too busy to process messages in time, increasing `response_timeout` won't resolve the issue. Instead, try disabling some components, lowering the log level, or upgrading to a more powerful ESP board.
-3. **Unrecognized Messages:** Your AC might be sending new types of messages that the component does not recognize. If adjusting the timeout and optimizing ESP performance don't help, capture the logs and create an issue on GitHub for further assistance.

 If all messages that look like this "Frame found: type 02, data: 6D 01 ..." are the same, the feature you want to add is not supported by the serial protocol. If you see some changes in the status packet, you can create a feature request on GitHub with the logs you collected.
 
-Another option is to try to record log of communication between original Haier ESP and Haier appliance. You can use `Sniffing serial communication <./docs/sniffing_serial_communication.rst>`_ guide to do that.
