I’ve recently bought a second RM mini from Broadlink. Connected it to my wifi using their app, got the mac adress from the app and gave it a static IP in my router.
But when trying to send/learn commands from it it doesn’t work. The 1st mini is still working and can receive and send IR commands. But when calling the broadlink.send or learn service on the second device nothing happens.
Config entry for both devices, remote1 works, remote2 doesn’t.
perform a ping on the network for the one that isnt working
ping it
if you using windows
ping 192.168.1.99 -t ( - t will just loop till you press ctrl + C)
if you get a reply
unplug it
ping it again
now you should Not be getting reply
Have you tried adding type: rm_mini to the config for each device? I know it’s an optional variable, but perhaps with having 2 entries it is needed. Worth a try.
Yea I used that first, removed those lines as an attempt to get it working. Sadly it didn’t. I’m now factory resetting both broadlink devices, assigning them a new IP and see if that makes them both work.
hi, i have three broadlink devices for climate , but all three don’t work.
only one works, i need restart HA to use another broadlink
i have IP and MAC different in all broadlink , because this problem ?
this is my configuration.yaml
do i have errors? how can i solve to use all three ?
I’ve now tried to remove the RM mini that was first added and try using only the second one. Somehow still doesn’t work. Does someone know if this is some mistake on the broadlink side? The broadlink (ihc) app works fine but anything else doesn’t.
If somebody still looking like i did for a while. The solution is really simple but not intuitive. To add new device to integration you just need to add new integration. This is a bit confusing i would expect that inside integration we will have an add device command. But anyway to get second device working at least for Home Assistant 2021.4.6 You just press new integration and select Broadlink it will add 2 devices into integration:
