Daikin Component - no climate entities created - task exception

Hi @fredrike - thanks for responding.

Yes 100% sure is the correct address - the Daikin Aribase app is connected to this IP and working. I also noted in the HA log file reported the same later IP in the logfile so it found it (?)

2019-02-24 15:22:49 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.daikin.config_flow] Discovered device: {‘id’: ‘aName’, ‘name’: ‘DaikinAir’, ‘ip’: ‘192.168.0.xxx’, ‘mac’: ‘YYYYYYYYYY’, ‘ver’: ‘1_1_0’}

Any other thoughts? or tests I can do?

Cheers

@fredrike - are you able to suggest a troubleshooting path for this issue?

A general approach to troubleshooting is to install and run the backend library pydaikin:

pip install pydaikin
pydaikin -l
pydaikin 192.168.1.12  # Where 192.168.1.12 is the IP reported by the previous command

Another approach is to make sure that all the endpoints in appliance.py-7 works and outputs data.

i.e. (change ip accordingly)
http://192.168.1.12/aircon/get_control_info
http://192.168.1.12/aircon/get_model_info
http://192.168.1.12/aircon/get_price

Thanks @fredrike

I assume these all should have had /skyfi/ after the IP address?

Running them all I get :

Does the componet handle this? Does this help work out what may be happening?

The SkyFi units are using a different protocol than the one implemented in this component.

Supported hardware

Only the European versions of Daikin AC (models BRP069A41, 42, 43, 45).

Please use this custom_component instead: https://github.com/kabongsteve/HomeAssistant/blob/master/climate/skyfi.py

Edit: If you don’t have a configured password and request http://192.168.0.131/ac.cgi what do you get back then? It looks pretty easy to adopt pydaikin to support SkyFi units too.

I’ve created a new thread for Daikin AirBase units. Thank you @Borgy for your extensive testing for the new integration.

Thank YOU! A team effort… Working well so far indeed…

Does a Daikin device in a location different from the HA location communicate with it?

No, I don’t think so.

Hey guys, I have 2 inside units since a while. They are new type Daikin Stylish units ( FTXA-AS, Daikin page
They both work very well with HASS.
They also support power usage and they have a humidity sensor.
The power usage I sorted out using a rest sensor (heat and cool):

  • platform: rest
    resource: http://192.168.X.XX/aircon/get_day_power_ex
    name: “Woonkamer heat”
    value_template: “{{ value.split(‘,’)[1].split(‘=’)[1].split(‘/’)|map(‘float’)|sum/10 }}”
    unit_of_measurement: “kWh”
    device_class: power
  • platform: rest
    resource: http://192.168.X.XX/aircon/get_day_power_ex
    name: “Woonkamer cool”
    value_template: “{{ value.split(‘,’)[3].split(‘=’)[1].split(‘/’)|map(‘float’)|sum/10 }}”
    unit_of_measurement: “kWh”
    device_class: power

and the humidty is also done by rest sensor

  • platform: rest
    resource: http://192.168.X.XX/aircon/get_sensor_info
    name: “Woonkamer humidity”
    value_template: “{{ value.split(‘,’)[2].split(‘=’)[1] }}”
    unit_of_measurement: “%”
    device_class: humidity

Output of my aircon/get_sensor_info

ret=OK,htemp=22.0,hhum=40,otemp=13.0,err=0,cmpfreq=0

Just for reference for other people to use if they like.

Question tho, is the temperature always without decimals? Maybe I’m being picky but I’d like it to be in tenths, but I guess the A/C doesnt spit out decimals other than zero?

Any update about energy monitor?

The energy monitoring can be done as a rest sensor just like @Fietspomp shown above.

A post was split to a new topic: Daikin DTA116A51 DIII-NET/Modbus Adapter

i am using a daikin AC that needed two components for smart integration
"A wireless LAN connecting adaptor (BRP072C42) and remote control PC-board set
(BRP067A42-FTKM25/35TVMM or BRP980B42-FTKM50/60/71TVMM) "
It cost like 150usd to get both of them while i could just spend 30 usd on xiaomi air conditioner companion or 12 usd for RM mini 3
I know those doesnt have feedback but is it worth it for me?

Hi @WildRat, I will install 2 FTXM-M in my apartment next week. I just want to ask you if your perfera still works with HA using default Daikin component.

Thank you in advance

Currently I use OpenHub on my NAS (this is due the available Python versions for my NAS OS). All works Ok. As I know, there where no major changes to API apart from GET/POST. So all should continue working.

I think it should be or, either the wifi-adaptor or the pc adaptor.

Hi Guys, I just purchased 2 daikin A/C units this week and both came with the BRP072C42 wifi modules. I can get them working with the D-Mobile App but not with the Daikin intergration in HA. I have seem some other forums saying that the C models only alow https and the current intergration doesn’t support the C42 wifi modules. Does anyone know if anyone is looking to add support for the C42 wifi modules in the near future or can provide some workaround in the meantime?

Hello, do any of you have any info about the BRP069A81 ? It is a multi duct model. Actually I got a quote for a 5 duct units. Will I be able to control every single duct/room individually? I.e. something like units 1, 2 and 5 off, unit 3 20°C maximum speed fan, unit 4 22°C silent fan. Stuff like that, like every unit is a separate thermostat in the HA gui.
I don’t want to buy something that will be a trouble or not working in my Home Assistant.

Thank you!
