Can not add Broadlink rm mini 3 to HA 0.92.1

Configuration
2

This is what i have in my config:

switch:
  - platform: broadlink
    host: 192.168.100.53
    mac: 'B4:43:0D:CC:0F:58'
    timeout: 15
    type: rm2_pro_plus

Maybe try a type?

I did try with with type but it is still not added

There’s an open issue about RM mini on Github.

Thanks @VDRainer! I will look into that

I try to downgrad to 0.91.3 and broadlink work fine now

It seems that you have rm2_pro. I also have it and have no problem with it after upgrading to 0.92.1. Looks like only the mini is affected.

8

It has been said that this issue was fixed on 0.92.1 (https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/23408). But I still have this problem on my hassio 0.91.2, can anyone help please ?

I have an 0.92 problem with Broadlink minis as well. Switches that were configured worked in HA after I called them from google voice, not from the HA panel. Scripts do not work at all.

10

I am having the same problem, the switch for rm pro doesnt work, any solution?

This is the error I get:

have you confirmed that’s the correct config for broadlink, pretty sure the switch.broadlink_send_pack is no longer valid

This is what I have in my switch.yaml file:

- platform: broadlink
  host: 192.168.0.105
  mac: 'my mac address'
  type: rm2_pro_plus
14

Same here with rm mini, all my switches are reporting “Entity not available”… Any solution?

15

do you have an automation that calls switch.broadlink_send_packet

16

My RM mini is working fine with version 0.92.2! But I had to change my scripts recently from “switch.broadlink_send_packet” to “broadlink.send”.

# Broadlink IR-Blaster
  - platform: broadlink
    host: Your-Broadlink-IP-Adress
    mac: "Your-Broadlink-MAC-Adress"
    friendly_name: RM mini 3

and in my Scripts/automations I use:

ir_device1:
  alias: IR Device Command 1
  sequence:
  - data:
      host: Your-Broadlink-IP-Adress
      packet: The-needed-IR-code=
    service: broadlink.send

Good luck!

17

That seems to have done the trick for me, thanks!
If a few more people jump in with this as a solution I’m thinking to have a bash at changing the docs to reflect the working change…

18

yes I have a script which calls it

19

Can you post one of your scripts formatted?

20

You need to update it to the new format
