ESPHome code for projector ACER X1261 controlled via RS232 interface

In the folder ESPHome is the exapmle of YAML code for an ESP8266 D1 Mini + RS232 module to communicate with the serial interface of the ACER X1261 projector.

Information

Alternatively to the ESP8266 WiFi-to-Serial interface it is also possible to use a USB-to-RS232 interface.

The control of the projector is then done via buttons that trigger shell commands. The example for a setup of the USB configuration is in the folder HA-Panel.
