Airtouch 4 integration (AUS)

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

@Zotech I’ll try to explain, HA can be complex.

Home Assistant (HA) doesn’t natively know how to communicate with every piece of equipment around. Each device needs an “Integration”, which is a piece of software that lets HA communicate with that device. Integrations can be “built in”, or “custom”. Custom integrations need to be added to Home Assistant, either manually or using the Home Assistant Community Store (HACS). I don’t use HACS so I don’t know much about it.

Home Assistant comes with a built in Airtouch 4 integration, this one here. There’s also this custom integration on github, which is the one I use. I don’t know if this thread is about one integration in particular, both are mentioned. I think both integrations can be installed using the HACS - only one at a time - but I run Home Assistant on docker on a Raspberry Pi rather than on Home Assistant OS so I don’t really know how that works.

I think you’re using the built in HA Airtouch 4 integration. I don’t know much about that one because I haven’t used it for quite a while. I use the custom integration linked above, which works well. With that I can change damper, zones, etc while the system is turned off.

For some reason your integration / control looks to be giving you a power button against each zone, rather than turning the zone / damper on and off it’s turning the whole system on or off. To work out why we’d have to dig into the user interface widget you’re using. First, create another dashboard and widget to control HA to see if it works better. I use Simple Themostat, which I installed manually into HA.

Alternately, uninstall your current AT4 integration and try the other one. The main way to tell them apart is (I think) either the icon or the word “Push” in the title of the one I use. Try the other integration with the simple thermostat widget and you may have more luck.

This screenshot shows my main Airtouch4 dashboard. It looks fairly simple, but it gives me good control over temperatures, dampers, has an off timer (written in AppDaemon), and does everything I need. I used another dashboard I found as the starting code, then modified it fairly heavily. It doesn’t use a simple instance of simple thermostat, it uses, multiple so it’s laid out in a way that works quite well.

You are a legend my friend. Thanks for taking the time to write the reply, I never realised there was two integrations, I was using the official one. I’ve now loaded the integration from HACS and I can see all the damper and climate entities.

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

You’re welcome. There’s a bit of a learning curve for Home Assistant, and Airtouch with HA. I’ve been refining my automations for a couple of years as I learned HA. Now I’m occasionally writing AppDaemon Python code when I need more control than automations can provide.

I’ve changed my card to the one you posted but am having issues with the damper sliders showing.
They are showing fine before I click on Done but soon as I click on it they disappear. Am I missing something?

I don’t really know. You’d have to provide screenshots to help me understand what you mean.

Here’s my Airtouch Dashboard. It has a few integrated features, like calling a cooldown action so it turns off after a few minutes on fan, and it integrates with my AppDaemon “turn off in x minutes” plugin. It’s got a bit of dynamic UI changing based on state and actions.

I got the base code from a thread here somewhere, I’ve been evolving it for a year or two. It would probably take me a while to work out exactly how it works.

                  - entity: sensor.preset_mode_guest
                    state: Damper

I worked it out, its because my airtouch is not set to damper mode so the condition is not met. If I remove the condition for sensor.preset_mode it shows up

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

Yep, you can only change damper percentages in damper mode. I think you have to enable that option on the Airtouch first as well.

[thommo17]

Hey everyone,

After finally finding the issue with my AirTouch 4 unit and why I couldn’t connect to it because I had local passwords on I disabled it and I can connect my HA to my AirTouch.

I was wondering if there is a way to have the local password on so I have a bit more security?

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

I’m not quite sure what you mean @thommo17 . Did you have passwords on the Android tablet user? What are you trying to secure? Do you want to prevent anyone in the house accessing the tablet running the Airtouch?

[spry-salt]

Is anyone else finding that AT4 is dropping off the wifi network randomly in recent time? Might have been a firmware update? Needs a reboot of the controller for it to be able to see any wifi networks again.

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

Nope. But my AT4 tablet was replaced with AT5 when it had Wi-Fi problems a year ago or so. Still an AT4 system just with newer tablet.

[spry-salt]

Same here. Is it on 2.4 or 5 GHz wifi?

[spry-salt]

For info:
https://github.com/mihailescu2m/hass-airtouch4-platform

Someone else raised an issue just recently. I don’t know if the developer is still active on this project though.

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

5Ghz Wi-Fi here.

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

I upgraded to HA 2023.12.3 this morning, and a few things aren’t working properly with my automations any more. In a couple of places I was using the wrong action or the wrong entity (fan vs damper) and it was working anyway, which I’ve fixed up.

One I haven’t solved yet. I often put a fan into damper mode, change its percentage, then set it back to ITC. The action to change the damper percentage doesn’t give an error but also doesn’t work any more. Does anyone know how to change the damper percentage with an action?

I logged a home assistant core bug here. When I rolled back to 2023.11.3 everything started working perfectly again.

  - service: climate.set_preset_mode
    data:
      preset_mode: Damper
    target:
      entity_id:
        - climate.itc_living
  - service: fan.turn_on
    data:
      percentage: 50
    target:
      entity_id: fan.damper_living
  - service: climate.set_preset_mode
    data:
      preset_mode: ITC
    target:
      entity_id:
        - fan.damper_living

[spry-salt]

After changing wifi infrastructure it was all going so well until recently, now the dreaded error messages are back:

2023-12-20 11:23:41.360 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.polyaire.airtouch4] Connection error in receiver!
2023-12-20 11:23:43.967 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.polyaire.airtouch4] Error sending message! Deleting existing connection and retry sending in 5 seconds...

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

The only thing that ever helped me with those error messages was replacing the console with a new one.

I’m still interested to hear if anyone is having problems with HA 2023.12 controlling damper percentages manually.

[spry-salt]

Yeah I already replaced the console with a new one

[tomwaldnz (Tim)]

I guess it’s time to learn Python so you can work out if it’s a bug! Given it was fixed when my hardware was replaced I wonder if it’s a run of bad hardware. Did you get the Airtouch4 tablet or the Airtouch5? Mine is AT5.

[tamorix]

Another way of setting the damper percentage is using the fan.set_percentage service. You would first turn on the damper with service: fan.turn_on without any data and then call fan.set_percentage . I found this to work more reliably in general (although your method should work of course). I also tend to add a delay between service calls although this might not be required.

  - service: fan.turn_on
    target:
      entity_id: fan.damper_living
    data: {}
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 0
      seconds: 0
      milliseconds: 100
  - service: fan.set_percentage
    target:
      entity_id: fan.damper_living
    data:
      percentage: 50
