Great work on the integration, and thanks for updating it a few weeks back to re-support windfree.

I think it would great to add the feature of disabling sound effect and lighting through the integration. I know that Samsung's own integration through Alexa gives the ability to disable sound (the beeps), but not lighting (the display). Lighting can however disabled in the Smartthings app, so i'm hoping the feature is available through integration as well.

The feature would prevent any automation during nighttime from waking up anyone (e.g. an airconditioner in a bedroom being disabled during the night).

Ideally the two would be integrated as both switches and sensors. I.e. a sensor for each to test whether sounds or lighting is on, and a switch for each to disable or enable either. The reason for the sensor, is that I notice the AC automatically enables both - lighting somehow always defaults back to 'on' regularly, whereas sounds will default back to 'on' if the AC power has been lost (power outage, or simialr). So it would be great to set up a rule to keep them off, but is not critical. So 'only' a switch for each would be very usefull also.

Thanks for the great plugin!
I was struggling with the same issue. Anytime the AC is controlled via API, the light settings are overridden and are turned back on.
I followed this topic: https://community.smartthings.com/t/rest-api-for-display-light-on-samsung-windfree-ac/195928/15
and wrote a shell script that turns my AC light in the bedroom every 5 minutes at a specified time frame (night).
Having such an option directly in the plugin directly could be beneficial to many...
