Climate_IP - ClimateDevice for IP based units (not only Samsung AC)

buzurk · December 7, 2019, 10:19pm

Hi @SebuZet

Thanks for this great plugin, with the help of another member ive got it working, but some unexpected behaviour

i could not get it to work with the validate ssl being true, setting to false it works now
If i turn the AC on via HAS, i can see it comes on and is working, then within minutes, say 5 or so turns off, its like HAS then tells it to turn off

If i turn it on using my samsung panel, or the genuine samsung app it stays on, so i know the AC and connectivity is ok

Any reason why this might occur

Im using old 2878 generation on ducted air

Sorry for my late feedback

You were rigth, I changed location of antena and WiFi channel and the error disappeared.

I have another problem, when I install climate_ip with HACS it seems there is a background process that implements a loop with a responsiveness delay, I mean, if I switch on and switch off a light through HA I can do it in a very responsive way during 8-10 seconds and after that time it does not repond during 5 seconds. Any similar behaviour? How to fix/debug it?

I have 3 units with similar config:

platform: climate_ip
config_file: 'samsung_2878.yaml'
ip_address: '192.168.1.29'
token: 'XXXXX'
cert: ''
#cert: 'ac14k_m.pem' #set as '' to skip certificate verification
mac: 'XXXXX'
name: 'Salón AC'
debug: false
poll: disable_ip

I’m stuck ! help !

This is my configuration.yaml

Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)

default_config:

Uncomment this if you are using SSL/TLS, running in Docker container, etc.

Apparently I could put it to work at least I can see it working in the overview now:

default_config:

climate:

platform: ‘climate_ip’
config_file: ‘samsung_2878.yaml’
ip_address: ‘192.168.25.91’
token: ‘b7ded355-6d3a-4c4c-9ea6-38’
cert: ‘ac14k_m.pem’ #set as ‘’ to skip certificate verification
name: ‘Sala ac’
mac: ‘BC:8C:CD:D7:A5:63’
platform: ‘climate_ip’
config_file: ‘samsung_2878.yaml’
ip_address: ‘192.168.25.93’
token: ‘fcf4096f-9b1d-401b-a587-7153a’
cert: ‘ac14k_m.pem’ #set as ‘’ to skip certificate verification
name: ‘Escritorio ac’
mac: ‘BC:8C:CD:D7:DA:95’

group: !include groups.yaml
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml
scene: !include scenes.yaml

I also had to work with the CPURAM post regarding:

near line 25, remove “ATTR_HVAC_ACTIONS” and its preceding comma
near line 251, commnet/delete the below 3 lines
@property
def hvac_action(self):
return self.rac.get_property(ATTR_HVAC_ACTIONS)
re-start HA

Looks better now.

Thanks for your work on this @SebuZet. I recently got my Samsung Aircon set up in Home Assistant, and wrote about it here: https://newadventuresinwi-fi.blogspot.com/2019/11/controlling-samsung-air-conditioner-from-home-assistant.html

SebuZet · December 17, 2019, 12:16pm

@oscill8ory Good to hear that.

Guys, I’m really sorry but at this moment I have no free time for this component. There is a lot of private stuff in my live to organize.
Additionally I’m not using HA anymore. Support for Z-Wave is very poor so I decided to stop using it. I’m not sure if I will come back to HA later or move to something else.

@wifi75 You need to call service climate_ip_set_property on you entity with dedicated params, eg:

{
  "entity_id" : "climate.salon_ac",
  "power" : "on",
  "purify" : "on",
  "special_mode" : "comfort"
}

You can find more info on github or in this thread.

@tode Did you try to something similar to this:

switch:
  - platform: template
    switches:
      purify:
        value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('climate.salon_ac', 'purify', 'on') }}"
        turn_on:
          service: climate.climate_ip_set_property
          data:
            entity_id: climate.salon_ac
            purify: 'on'
        turn_off:
          service: climate.climate_ip_set_property
          data:
            entity_id: climate.salon_ac
            purify: 'off'

You need to adopt entity name to yours config

oscill8ory · December 18, 2019, 10:54am

@SebuZet, thanks again, and understand you have moved on from this. Are you open to receiving pull requests to fix issues that crop up with the climate_ip component over time? Or would you prefer someone to just fork your repository?

Alex_Gontmakher · December 19, 2019, 10:12pm

I was trying to use sebuzet’s custom integration for Samsung AC, and had a hard time with it: my HA slowed to a crawl, with updates taking 5-10 seconds.

Would take me too long to learn enough HA infrastructure to debug it, and with it unsupported at the moment, I wrote my own, this time it’s a small Go bridge that runs in a separate process and connects to HA through MQTT. Seems to work.

Find it here: https://github.com/gsasha/hvac_ip_mqtt_bridge
There is also a docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/gsasha/hvac_ip_mqtt_bridge/tags

Let me know what you think,

tode · January 7, 2020, 6:16am

Thanks!
It works

walkie · January 10, 2020, 2:47am

Very pleased with this component. I have two Samsung A/C units both the older generation on port 2878. Getting the token was easy once I found out about the Homebridge method.

I was eventually going to purchase another two Sensibo Sky units (I already have one) to control the two Samsungs and a Fujitsu AC. I can now use the existing Sensibo for the Fujitsu, so this component has just saved me about $318 AUD!

Nick398 · February 10, 2020, 4:08am

Hi Walkie,

is it working fine for you? i got it to work even send/receive commands, but Current temperature displayed on HA is showing on F* (instead of C*), all other temps are fine on C*.

walkie · February 12, 2020, 8:47am

Mine is displaying in C not F. I can change it to F in Home Assistant/Configuration/General Configuration.

Not sure why you’d see F on Climate_IP devices but C everywhere else.

facco88 · April 5, 2020, 3:13pm

Hi Guys!! Very stupid question maybe!

How do I get the token of my ac units from smartthings app?

Thanks a lot!!

facco88 · April 5, 2020, 3:48pm

UPDATE; i have found the curl to perform but now I’m getting:

curl: (7) Failed to connect to 192.168.1.108 port 8888: Connection refused

I’ve tried with nmap and I got:

PORT STATE SERVICE
2878/tcp closed aap
8888/tcp closed sun-answerbook

how can i open port 8888?

Thanks in advance

fosi · April 9, 2020, 12:24pm

did climate_ip stopped working with the latest release of home assistant 0.108? i’m having troubles

Nick398 · April 14, 2020, 7:21am

It’s working fine for me. I just had to restart HA after the update as it wasn’t recognising it.

wifi75 · April 22, 2020, 12:42pm

how do i install it? https://github.com/gsasha/hvac_ip_mqtt_bridge

Nick398 · April 30, 2020, 11:04pm

Hi all,

Im trying to create an automation to turn on the heat for when the current_temperature drops below a value, but I’m not finding a way to read the value for the trigger, or to add it as a condition.

Has anyone done something like this?

TIA!
N.

Hi, after HomeAssistant 109 update, I have this issues on Climate_IP:
