AC Infinity Bluetooth 69 PRO controllers SUCCESSFUL

[mikeybatoz]

been working on this for awhile still have yet to find all the monitoring values but heres how to control the variable fan and on/off

(find the mac id of device and replace the YOURMACADDRESS with it) then add this with mac address to config.yaml

shell_command:
aci_on: gatttool -b YOURMACADDRESS --char-write-req -a 0x0030 -n a500000800536f0e000310010212010aff01209a

[guyski12]

I stumbled onto your work because I would like very simple control of my Infinity Controller 67 from my home automation system. I’m not an HA user, I mainly use Smartthings, Sharptools and other IOT connected devices. Any thoughts on how I could use your commands in my environment? BTW, as others have stated, Infinity should just provide some sort of API or even IFTTT for this).

[mikeybatoz]

they wont ive been in contact with their help department and a programmer they both say they dont want it to be done and want only their own proprietary software to be able to run their systems

i explained to them what we were doing here and how its home automation that were not trying to steal their work we are trying to make it work with ours and it would actually be better if they made their own home assistant integration so people could use it the way they want to.

basically told to go sit in the corner and deal with it even after explaining that it will only hurt them by nt being on the side of change…still dont care , its mor about profit and money for them then it is to be for the customer experience which i personally find sad…

so to your question

write a shell script and run it on your platform? i dont know what smart things is but im assuming another form of home assistant. so test your boundaries and see where you could fit something such as this

your really looking to use some script to bluetoothctl into the ACINFINITY ble protocols … not too hard right : )

seriously tho… were here if you need us

[mikeybatoz]

AC infinty 67 requires you to send a notification to one uuid , then a bit of code to a 2nd uuid for it to run properly…

would you be upset if i told you the 69 pro (99$ one…) works easier but not saying you cant do it

[guyski12]

Thanks for the help. I don’t have much bluetooth experience, but I’d really like to control my controller 67 through my home automation, specifically the fan speed control. I’m using a PI device (linux) and have been able to connect to the controller using bluetoothctl, but I’m not sure what values I need to send via gatt. I’m also not opposed to getting the Controller 69, but they are sold out right now. I’ve included what I see so far. Any insight on how I need to attack this would be appreciated.

[mikeybatoz]

Your in the right spot your just not reading the packets your seeing the communication console for it to carry messages

I’m sure you can run scripts from the program you use…

Your gonna need to write a small shell script

Tell it to connect using Bluetooth to and to send command to turn on/ off and at what level

[mikeybatoz]

#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set prompt "#"
set address DA:6E:91:88:26:2C 
spawn bluetoothctl
expect -re $prompt
sleep 1
send "connect $address\r"
expect "Connection successful"
sleep 2
send "list-attributes\r"

sleep 2
send "select-attribute /org/bluez/hci0/dev_F0_74_59_49_C0_45/service001b/char001e\r"
sleep 2
send "notify on\r"
sleep 2
send "select-attribute /org/bluez/hci0/dev_F0_74_59_49_C0_45/service001b/char001c\r"
sleep 2
send "write \"0xa5 0x00 0x00 0x06 0x00 0x67 0x02 0xd8 0x00 0x03 0x10 0x01 0x02 0x12 0x01 0x08 0x2b 0x3b\"\r" 
send "quit\r"
expect eof

this code requires you to have epect → apk add expect / apt-get install expect or whichever your linux terminal allows

then youll need to give permissions to the file you create with chmod 0777 filename.sh

then youll make file executable with chmod +x filename.sh

After you get that let me know I’ll run through the system and grab remaining codes to adjust pwm and off for you

[guyski12]

Looks like things are working. I did swap the gatt and list-attributes commands because I believe that’s the correct order? Here’s what I get:

Sorry the list attributes isn’t necessary, you can remove that part

Does the fan turn on when executing the code?

[guyski12]

It was already on at speed 4, but went to speed 8 after running the script. I hadn’t noticed because the fan is in another room. Very cool! Looking through some of your earlier posts is the “8” in the command (send “write “0xa5 0x00 0x00 0x06 0x00 0x67 0x02 0xd8 0x00 0x03 0x10 0x01 0x02 0x12 0x01 0x08 0x2b 0x3b”\r”) setting the speed?

[mikeybatoz]

that is correct
a = 10

also the portion before that 0x02 0x12 , change to 0x01 0x11 to turn off

[guyski12]

Awesome, I think I can fumble around now and poke at it. Thanks again for your time. And, Infinity if you are listening just make this easier!

Nice work. I’d like to get this working as well, but I don’t have the same attribute you used (…service002e/char0032). I tried all of the attributes from my list (see my previous post), but nothing worked. I have the bluetooth controller, are you using the wifi controller? Any ideas on how to investigate?

Ac infinity controller 67 Bluetooth temp, humidity, fan pwm

Clunky things that work together is literally my life.

check this thread for the 67

or heres the code for the 67, it doesnt give vpd but ou can calculate for that with temp and humidity

#!/usr/bin/expect -f

set prompt "#"
set address DA:6E:91:88:26:2C 
spawn bluetoothctl
expect -re $prompt
send "connect $address\r"
expect "Connection successful"
send "list-attributes\r"
send "menu gatt\r"
send "select-attribute /org/bluez/hci0/dev_DA_6E_91_88_26_2C/service001b/char001e\r"
send "notify on\r"
send "select-attribute /org/bluez/hci0/dev_DA_6E_91_88_26_2C/service001b/char001c\r"
send "write \"0xa5 0x00 0x00 0x03 0x03 0x49 0x79 0xd7 0x00 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x20 0x78 0xe9\"\r" 
send "select-attribute /org/bluez/hci0/dev_DA_6E_91_88_26_2C/service001b/char001e\r"
send "read\r"
sleep 2
send "quit\r"
expect eof

Temp in C

/config/./FILENAME.sh | grep a5 | awk 'NR==2 { print "0x" $16 $17 }' | xargs printf "%d\n"

this will show temp in F from terminal

/config/./FILENAME.sh | grep a5 | awk 'NR==2 { print "0x" $16 $17 }' | xargs printf "%d\n" |xargs -n 1 bash -c 'echo $(($1 * 9/5 + 3200 ))' args | xargs -n 1 bash -c 'echo $(($1 /100))' args

Humidity

/config/./FILENAME.sh | grep '20 01\| a5' | awk 'NR==1 {print "0x" $18};NR==2 {print $3}' | awk 'NR%2{printf "%s",$0;next;}1' | xargs printf "%d\n"

call these proof of concept strings…

That works for me, thanks. You may have already figured this out, but the reported speed appears to be in the 5th data pair of the second line. I set the speed to 0, 1 ,2 and this was the data.

a5 10 00 11 03 49 50 8e 00 01 02 05 02 08 a2 0c …IP…
b0 03 05 00 00 00 00 00 20 01 00 ed bb

a5 10 00 11 03 49 50 8e 00 01 02 05 02 08 a3 0c …IP…
b2 03 05 00 01 00 00 00 20 01 00 b0 0a

a5 10 00 11 03 49 50 8e 00 01 02 05 02 08 a6 0c …IP…
b4 03 05 00 02 00 00 00 20 01 00 d9 b2

Now I just need to extract it with one of your fancy command line proof of concepts.

[mikeybatoz]

yea im working with it in python

edit ->stoned…i did not see it had sped registered. that may be nice for when its called to support set speed

Sorry for such a simple question but the 69 pro controller is supporting both Bluetooth and wireless. Is the MAC address for the 802.11 wireless or the BT? If BT, how do you obtain it ?

[abelardo.sanchez]

hi, you can find out googling the command:
gatttool - tool for Bluetooth Low Energy device

[supercazzola]

Thank you very much. Do you install it on the Home Assistant OS?
