Plikc integration

Hello,
I am trying to get thermostat data from the Tuya cloud.
The thermostat is made by Plikc and they are using a custom mobile app to communicate with their devices.
I did some tests and found the correct endpoint and parameters to send to it (apart from the “sign” field, this is still a big unknown).
Do you have any knowledge about this manufacturer’s thermostats? Or some guide to correctly calculate the sign (and possibly other parameters) to send to the endpoint?
If this interests you, I can share the endpoint I found and the related fields to fill out in the request.

Thank you,
Massimiliano.

Hi, it seems nobody needed Plikc integrations until now.

I don’t have a thermostat but a switch (astro wifi) PLK202020. It seems they are using Tuya cloud too. I will be trying to get things working in the following days.

Thank you cyphera!

Seems like one of the very few chronotermostats which can be configured both on the device itself and through the app. That is, one of the few devices that are more than a dumb switch when the cloud link/wifi is down.

It would be nice to have HA integration.

Hi, in fact the integration is already working if you use “Smart Life App” instead of “Plikc App”. They are very similar. Then you can use “Tuya” integration of Home Assistant.
There is however a little bug in the exposed operations… see screenshot (two “Caldo/Freddo” buttons).

Hi ! I have 3 of these thermostats, and yes, there is some bugs with Tuya integration. I even tried with Local tuya but it gave me problems with endpoints. I hope that Tuya (or Loc Tuya) will integrate it soon.

I can’t link the thermostats to the tuya app, only to the Plick app. Is there any setting to do?

Hi Carlo, same problems… keep in touch in case on of us find a solution. thx

To link to Tuya App “Smart Life”, you have first to reset/unbind the unit from wifi with the backside button.

Local Tuya doesn’t work because protocol is 3.4, that is not supported yet.

Cloud Tuya works but:

  • hvac_modes are “off” and 3x “heat_cool”, should be “off” and “heat” maybe?
  • preset_modes is only “holiday”, but it doesn’t work… should be at least “holiday”, “auto”
hvac_modes:
  - 'off'
  - heat_cool
  - heat_cool
  - heat_cool
min_temp: 5
max_temp: 35
target_temp_step: 0.1
preset_modes:
  - holiday
current_temperature: 18.6
temperature: 18.2
preset_mode: null
friendly_name: NEVE X WIFI2
supported_features: 17

Hello,
Sorry for late replying but I had some issues at home…
I will give it a try, thank you!

Hi!,
i am also trying to integrate this thermostat into home assistant. After successfully configuring it on smart life app, in ha as tuya integrations i have only 1 entity as switch. So I can only turn it on and off. Instead, I would like to be able to integrate the complete thermostat, with the status, the current temperature, etc.

Thank you!

it seems to work via localtuya integration now (supports 3.4 protocol).

DEar Patrizio,
is the integration of Plikc thermostat correctly working with localtuya?

Are there any issues?

I’m planning to buy a Neve Pro W thermostat…
Thank you,

Ciao a tutti sono un neofita di ha. Anch’io possiedo un termostato neve, qualcuno sa se adesso è compatibile con ha? Poter fare tutte le operazioni e non solamente accendere/ spegnere
Grazie mille

Hello everybody,
I managed to integrate Plikc Neve X Pro W with Tuya/Tuya local.
I didn’t manage to add a complete climate entity to Tuya local but I’ll probably use come custom thermostat integration…

Here the steps to add the device to Tuya AND Tuya local integrations:

  1. add the device to Tuya Smart app (dont’worry: identical settings of Plikc app); if it’s been already added to to Plikc remove it resetting the device using the procedure described on the user manual;
  2. add the Tuya integration on Home assistant;
  3. add the device on the Tuya integration; this integration is bugged (every temperature change reverts the mode to “manual” disabling the weekly program; and there are 3 heat/cold settings but it’s only a easthetical issue);
  4. add Tuya local integration on Home assistant;
  5. add the device and the entities: the binding of some endpoints/DPS to the entities is not editable (if you don’t want to delete and re-create a new device on Tuya local integration):
    5.1. number entity for ID=16, target temperature, min=50, max=350;
    5.2. sensor entity for ID=24, for current temperature, class=temperature, scale=0,1;
    5.3. binary_sensor entity for ID=1, for thermostat on/off state;
    5.4. select entity for ID=2, for mode, options=manual;auto;holiday;temporary

There are other DPS if useful to be added:

DPS Description
1 power on
2 mode
3 ?
16 target temp
19 max target temp
24 current temp
26 min target temp
27 temp correction
32 holiday_temp_set
33 holiday_days_set
39 NOT_factory_reset
40 child_lock
42 countdown_left
45 fault

I’m not an expert, but it there are questions I’d be pleased to help…

Hi Giacomo,

Thank you for the guide you posted above. I added the Neve X W to local Tuya and was able to add it as a device in Home Assistant. However, all entities I have configured are listed as “Unavailable”:

Do you have any recommendations on how to solve the issue?

Grazie!
