Ok, so I have little experience with IR remotes. I have a few broadlink IR remotes. The way I use them is by first learning the codes, then copy the codes from the .storage folder. Doing this I am bypassing the broadlink integration. My goal is to have my set up as “local” as possible. In case broadlink wants to make some weird changes.
Once I have the ir remote code (long string), I can use dev tools “remote send” to send the command. Well with RF I am not able to send the code the same way with dev tools.
My ultimate goal is to be able to set up 3 buttons.
At the moment I have those 5 switches. “Viento” is a fan. Under viento I wan’t to add the 3 buttons, with low medium high. The switch would turn fan on/off and the buttons would set the speed.
Any ideas on how I can accompish these two things? Send RF commands, and then set up buttons to send appropriate RF commands
So I got the first part figured out. Seems capitas do make a difference. I created a devcie called Viento, but was trying to call it viento.
This is the code that gets created when I run it via dev tools:
action: remote.send_command
data:
command: alto
device: Viento
target:
entity_id: remote.miriamrmpro
How can I set up a “button” to run that command
So I got it going but not 100% like I wanted. This is what it looks like:
Instead of “run” I rather it said press or better yet show a small button to press.
This is what my cards yaml code looks like:
type: entities
entities:
- entity: light.cuarto_miriam_sol
- entity: light.cuarto_miriam_cueva
- entity: light.cuarto_miriam_sol_rojo
- entity: fan.cuarto_miriam_viento
- entity: script.viento_bajo
- entity: script.viento_medio
- entity: script.viento_alto
Is there something I could change to this code to get a small button or substitute run with press?
