Broadlink RM-PRO and A1 sensor

Sounds like a plan.

Comparing to mine it’s in the same position but the newer one is just a single board without any of the aerials and other extras so maybe that helps.

Interestingly, mine seems to have become reliable, it’s since the 60.1 update but I changed my router at the same time so no idea which change is responsible.

Did anyone manage to get the RM pro to control a UK sky plus HD box.

So lost with this one

sorry this seems over my head how do I teach it the controls of the sky remote without it understanding the button presses it works with some buttons but not others cant get why

any help will be gratefully received

Hi,

I’ve gotten my A1 to be recognized by Hass.io and available to Amazon Alexa (ie. I can say, “Alexa, what is the temperature at home?”). “Home” being the name I assigned to the Broadlink A1 in the Alexa app, smart home devices section.

However, it only provides the temperature to Alexa. Is there something I can do on Hass.io to make Alexa also get sensor readings for humidity, noise & light level, and/or air quality? I’d also want to ask Alexa “what is the humidity at home?”, etc.

Thanks!

Hi,
can you explain how did you discover Broadlink A1 in Alexa. Do you need Hass.io do discover it ?

yes, once you see it in HA you will see it in alexa and all other assistants…

I would like to know if someone could help me on this:

  • I would like the Air Quality, Noise and Light sensors to show text instead of 1, 2, 3, 4…
  • Is it possible to integrate the A1 alarm into the HA Alarm panel?

Thank you!

Hello there,

I have a similar set up, you can use template sensors with templated values:

- platform: template
  sensors:
    indoorlight:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light", "0") %}黑{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light", "1") %}暗{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light", "2") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light", "3") %}光亮{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪光线'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_light
    indoornoise:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise", "0") %}静{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise", "1") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise", "2") %}吵{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪噪音'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_noise
    indoorair:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality", "0") %}优{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality", "1") %}良{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality", "2") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality", "3") %}差{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪空气质量'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_air
    indoorlight2:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light_2", "0") %}黑{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light_2", "1") %}暗{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light_2", "2") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_light_2", "3") %}光亮{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪光线'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_light_2
    indoornoise2:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise_2", "0") %}静{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise_2", "1") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_noise_2", "2") %}吵{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪噪音'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_noise_2
    indoorair2:
      value_template: '{% if is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality_2", "0") %}优{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality_2", "1") %}良{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality_2", "2") %}正常{% elif is_state("sensor.kong_qi_zhi_liang_yi_air_quality_2", "3") %}差{% else %}未知{% endif %}'
      friendly_name: '空气质量仪空气质量'
      unique_id: sensor.template.indoor_air_2

This is how I format the numeric output to Chinese human readable characters. Then update dashboard to use these template sensors and disable the ones from A1
