Local Tuya - Fan Controller

No longer needed as the integration supports the DPs correctly for my fan now. What are you stuck with?

It’s the modes - Normal and Nature. Can’t seem to get that to work on DP2 because I can’t see the option in Local Tuya.
I’ve tried setting “Normal”;“Nature” in the last option where it says Mode, but nothing seems to happen.


Everything else works perfectly.

I worked it out… finally.
I had to keep adding entities during configuration.
Not clear to me, but I got there in the end.
Cheers.

Oh right,

You’ll need to delete the device and start again. Add the fan exactly as you have just done, but leave the fan speed mode override alone (mine says disabled)

On the next screen, choose the select entity instead of fan, that’s where you set the names of the modes. So it adds two entities to the one device during the config.

Edit: whoops i see you got it. sorry i was slow to reply

Finally, got it working for me based on this.
For those that have low, medium and high settings instead of 1, 2, 3. this worked.

I used “low;med;high” as valid entries and it worked. “medium” didnt work but “med” did.
Also, the DP was different but that probably changes between devices.

dear friends, i have read through the entire thread and do recognize this is a bit dated. I have a tuya fan which is 6 speed. some with lights, some without. does the latest localtuya work well? which configuration should i follow?

would be great if someone can guide as I am really new to HA. thanks a lot in advance

Just installed 2 ceiling fans without lights and configured the fans with the local tuya integration here.

Works now changing the fan speeds but wondering is there is any way to replace the percentage values with “1-6” somehow as my fans have 6 speed steps!?


How do you add this template to your Dashboard?
I followed those instructions but see for the new template entity only the On/Off button!?

As an update, these Tuya fan/light combo devices work perfectly when using xZetsubou’s LocalTuya fork here:

And I have created a template for the device here:

My device is the Mercator Minota Ceiling Fan with Light (Part of the Mercator Ikuu range).

I have the “Create Windcalm DC” light + fan and this fork worked the best for me. It autodetected the fan and configured everything, no tweaking required.

I figured out the correct data points, and have had partial success configuring my fan controller with local tuya, BUT all the “values” show -1. Fan switch is not active/unavailable.

Thank you for sharing, I have also a CREATE Wind calm ceiling fan and it works great without any change!
