I just added/configured the Litter-Robot integration to Home Assistant. I noticed an unexpected issue…
Entity: vacuum.litter_robot_litter_box
When this entity switched to a Docked state after a cleaning cycle (see below screenshot), I don’t have the ability to turn off the Litter-Robot via this entity anymore. This entity seems to get stuck showing the Docked state indefinitely. I’m forced to use the official Litter-Robot Android app to power off the Litter-Robot. Once I power off the device from the official app, this entity will allow me to power it off and on again.
Stuck showing “Docked” indefinitely:
In the official app (concurrently) it looks like this:
Does anyone know how to turn off the Litter-Robot even when it shows as Docked using this integration? I currently have to switch between using this Integration and the official app. I’d prefer just to use this integration. Do I have to make my own custom REST command for this?
I am using the integration but have a followup question I thought I would post here:
What are the “Status Code” values in the “Robot Status Code” entity? Documentation lists “Displays the status code (Clean Cycle in Progress, Ready, Drawer Full, etc).” but does not give associated values.
I’m trying to connect to my newly received Litter Robot but after entering my login information it keeps saying “No devices or entities” with the error message “Failed setup, will retry.” When I hover over that error, it says that it’s unable to connect to the Litter Robot API. I’ve checked multiple times that my login information is correct.
I’m trying to use that fix with my current Home Assistant Installation: Home Assistant 2023.8.1 until later down the line when the fix will be included in a future Home Assistant Core update.
Then, simply copied them to: /config/custom_components/litterrobot. After I restart Home Assistant Core and add the integration again, I still get the same error.
I think I’m not downloading the correct source files. Could someone please tell me what I’m doing wrong?
