Broadlink RM Mini 3 Configuration

oriolism · January 17, 2017, 7:08pm

Im having problems to integrate the RM mini 3 with HA. My HA server(0.36.1) runs in a Raspberry PI 2 virtual enviroment.

Im using this example configuration on my switch.yaml file:
``

platform: broadlink
host: 192.168.0.55
mac: ‘b4:43:0d:ef:b0:8f’
switches:
TV:
friendly_name: “Philips TV”
command_on: ‘JgAcAB0dHB44HhweGx4cHR06HB0cHhwdHB8bHhwADQUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=’
command_off: ‘JgAaABweOR4bHhwdHB4dHRw6HhsdHR0dOTocAA0FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=’

An this are the errors Im getting:

INFO:homeassistant.loader:Loaded switch.broadlink from homeassistant.components.switch.broadlink
ERROR:homeassistant.bootstrap:Invalid config for [switch.broadlink]: [TV] is an invalid option for [switch.broadlink]. Check: switch.broadlink->switches->TV. (See ?, line ?). Please check the docs at https://home-assistant.io/components/switch.broadlink/

Any help will be appreciated.

Can you post your config and maintain the formatting? This is likely a spacing issue in your config file. See below for how to post it with the formatting retained:

Here you go!

#switch 7:
- platform: broadlink
  host: 192.168.0.55
  mac: 'b4:43:0d:ef:b0:9f'
  switches:
     TV:
    friendly_name: "Philips TV"
     command_on: 'JgAcAB0dHB44HhweGx4cHR06HB0cHhwdHB8bHhwADQUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA='
     command_off: 'JgAaABweOR4bHhwdHB4dHRw6HhsdHR0dOTocAA0FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA='

try switching ''TV" to “tv” under switches.

Also bump friendly_name over a space.

Thanks!
I’ve been trying to figure out why the hell it’s happenig in my config and it was a with name with one upper case letter!

How do you have your command codes set up to just work a button press? Do you just leave the command off blank or can you delete the line?

Thanks Daniel! Have you tried other commands that don’t don’t turn on and off? I am at work now and can’t post my config but I used e-control app to set up a set of codes ie. watch_espn 8 wait, .05 4 wait .05, 6 wait .05, enter. I have converted the hex codes to 64 but can’t seen to get it to work right.

Danielhiversen · July 21, 2017, 10:03am

Yes, most of my codes to other things than on/off. (Change volume,…)

Algo1911 · July 21, 2017, 10:05am

I see. Like line 101 and 102 in your code. I will try it later. Thanks for the help.
