Thanks for the reply, great to hear that everything is working as it should :slight_smile:
Nice that there is a custom component also!
Before using the custom component should I remove the installof the current setup?

1228

Ah ok I got it regarding polling and the callbacks.
Regardless of how the card and the component work, its by far better than the official integration and you have done a bloody awesome job! Actually I was just too busy lately, I should have moved to the card (and now component) way earlier. It always bothered me that it took so freaking long to update the status in the frontend - now thats sorted :slight_smile:

1229

I think it doesnt matter, the component will install new sensors anyway. I removed the card, then added the component. Nevertheless, I was in need to remove some orphaned entities in the entity list - not a big deal.

1230

Yes, uninstall Nuki Card, then clean all orphaned entities. Then install the component.

1231

Removed everything and installed the component. Easy install and is working great (fast response).
Thanks for this integration!

Hi,

I created a blueprint for the combination of a Dahua VTO and Nuki. With this blueprint you’re able to open the door from within the DMSS app on your phone. It’s based on the “Nuki NG” and “Home Assistant Dahua Integration” integrations.

1233

First of all, thank you for your work, you have made a very good lovelace card.
I would like to perform the [unlatch] and [lock] actions with a custom button card.
What are the call a service parameters like?

1234

Fast response was ok also with the automation, if it wasn’t fast there was some issue in your case. :slight_smile:

Anyway, glad that now you solved with the component.

1235

Thanks for your kind words: it’s not a lovelace card, it’s a big/complex automation. Lovelace card is only the presentation layer, the easy part. :slight_smile:

Regarding your request:

You should be covered. Keep in mind that now there’s a custom component for this, called Nuki NG: GitHub - kvj/hass_nuki_ng: Better support for Nuki devices in the Home Assistant

Hi Jeroen,

it’s a small world: I have the Dahua VTO in my to-buy list too. :slight_smile:

Which specific model are you using? I’m getting a little bit confused because they seem to have 3-4 different camera models and monitors…and I didn’t analyze everything in detail yet.

Hi Alex,

I have the VTO2202F-P bought via Ali… I have installed it in the wall, not on the wall, that is with the flush box. I paid aroud 137 euros for the package. The P in the type number stands for POE, so I also bought a switch for it.

I also created an automation to take a snapshot every time someone rings the door.

The camera is also attached to my Synology, which will save a movie when a movement is detected.

1238

137 for everything, switch and monitor included? Wow, that’s a bargain. I’ll ask you for details in DM. :slight_smile:

I’m using Frigate and now I added Double Take by @Jako, so now I can do automations based on face recognition. You might want to take a look at it. :wink:

I have a Synology too…a now old DS12812+, with 48TB of usable storage, mainly for movies and media stuff, and it’s at 80% of capacity now. But I love that NAS, if it was a more powerful model, I’d run HA on it. :slight_smile:

1239

The 137 was only for the VTO and flush box. The switch, I bought separately overhere in NL. I didn’t buy the monitor because for me, my phone is enough. You can use the DMSS app to view the camera and speak to the person at the door and with my Synology DS216J as said, I can save the movies.

BTW, if you by via ali, be sure to choose a shop that delivers from within the EU, otherwise you’ll have to pay custom fees and taxes.

1240

Yes, I already bought some stuff on Ali…I always make sure it’s shipped from EU.

When I’ll buy it, I’ll ask your support for the HA integration. :slight_smile:

I am using the new custom component and it is working great so far.
Thanks for your efforts @kvj.

Is there any possibilty to change the lock from unlock to unlatch the door?

1242

while testing the component I asked @kvj about this on Discord: here’s the problem, and it’s not the component, it’s lovelace.

custom component locks have three actions out-of-the-box: open, lock and unlock. So it’s available right from the beginning. Unfortunately, lovelace UI isn’t smart enough to show all three, and I was thinking about fixing it there, rather than breaking the semantic of the hass

To anyone interested in Nuki 3 and Nuki 3 Pro, I recommend reading this thread on nuki dev forum.

From what I understood: Local API is available only through the bridge. I asked some questions about old bridges compatibility etc.

Hope they don’t break compatibility with current APIs…

Hi @alexdelprete, I was still on the your previous Nuki card and moved to hacs integration.

Even if the connection with the bridge worked I only see 3 entities that are doing nothing.

My setup is a bridge+lock+opener+keypad

Also tried to delete and reinstall and reboot several time with no success.

Can I test something?

This is the integration placeholder BTW.

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply Alessandro.

Since I don’t need the lovelace entity (I use button cards that link to scripts) it’s fine for me. I just changed the action from lock.unlock to lock.open now.

Glad to know you easily solved the problem.

If you want, in order to help new users, it would be helpful to share the code you use to make the buttons for the lock. As an example.
