      Hello,
      I want to obtain codes from Lg air wall controller. I dissasemble the wall controller and I see three wires: GND, VCC (13,3V measured with a multimeter) and SIGNAL (13,3V too). I bouth a bidirectional logic converter that converts 3,3V to 5V and vice versa but I have read that the converter can handle the voltage of my wall controller. I make the connections: hight voltage side for the wires of lg controller and the low voltage side for the m5stack GRAY (3,3V, GND and pinout 16).
      On the other hand, I had read that the LG protocol for this controller the baud rate is 104 bps and 13 bytes for the serial datastream. I supose that the correct way is to use an oscilloscope to identify the signal but i don't have one.
      When I do the connections and see the screen of the Serial of m5stack i receive 0s. For receiving messages with sense I tried to change the LV pin of the logic converter to the 5V of the m5stack. When a little time passed a burning smell brings to me. I quickly disconnect the m5stack.
      At this point, I has two questions:

      • when I try to upload code to my m5stack I receive the next message:
        esptool.py v3.0-dev
        Serial port /dev/ttyUSB0
        Connecting......................................____Ha ocurrido un error mientras se enviaba el sketch
        _

      A fatal error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header
      I want to know if there is a possibility to restore the m5stack or it is death.

      • The second question is how can I read 13 bytes in Serial port.
        Thank you in advance.

        you input 5V level to the Device GPIO? .. the esp32 input voltage should lower than 3.6v. else it would be broken. I think your device was dead.
