Does anyone have this IR receiver ? I am trying to flash it via the Home Assistant ESPHome add-on , but so far am not successful. I need to "prepare for first use" and this step fails with an error message : "Failed to initialize. Try resetting your device or holding the BOOT button while selecting your serial port until it starts preparing the installation".
More details at https://community.home-assistant.io/t/athom-ar01-ir-sensor-help-needed/619043/2 .
I don't want to use Tasmota firmware as it requires MQTT. I want to use ESPHome firmware and the native API.
Please confirm that the CH340 serial driver is installed and a data cable is used instead of a power cable
