Samsung AC Support, help needed

Freman · July 9, 2018, 11:50pm

Sorry I’ve been so terrible at keeping ya’ll up to date, work is hell and isn’t about to get any better. I hope to find some time over the weekends when I’m not working.

sunnyspain · August 29, 2018, 3:10pm

Hi Freman,
I would also like to see this addon work. Let me know if I can help testing.
If you are out of time, can you send us/publish what you have and maybe we can finish it off?
Thanks!

+1 would love to have my Samsung AC integrated

rauljerico · November 16, 2018, 6:31pm

I’m also waiting this thread.

I hace a Samsung ducted AC with the MIM-H02 box.

With Homebridge it works with HTTP with this:

#!/bin/bash

if [ “$4” == “true” ]; then
# encender
(sleep 5.0;echo -e “<Request Type=“AuthToken”><User Token=“xxx”/></Request>\r”;sleep 5.0;echo -e "<Request Type=“DeviceControl”><Control CommandID=“xxx” DUID=“xxx”><Attr $
fi

if [ “$4” == “false” ]; then
# apagar
(sleep 5.0;echo -e “<Request Type=“AuthToken”><User Token=“xxx”/></Request>\r”;sleep 5.0;echo -e "<Request Type=“DeviceControl”><Control CommandID=“xxx” DUID=“xxx”><Attr $
fi

if [ “$1” == “Get” ]; then
# leer estado
(sleep 5.0;echo -e “<Request Type=“AuthToken”><User Token=“xxx”/></Request>\r”;sleep 5.0;echo -e “<Request Type=“DeviceState” DUID=“xxx”>\r\n”;sleep 1.0)| openssl s_cl$
fi

I want to work the AC with Homekit (Port 2878)

fosi · November 16, 2018, 8:40pm

does it works well with homebridge? no lag?

rauljerico · November 16, 2018, 10:02pm

No more lag than the original Samsung Smart Appliance app.

But It’snt the best way to talk with the MIM-H2; one or two types I’ve had to wait until it responds again; like the MIM-H02 CPU is at 100% getting my orders

fosi · November 17, 2018, 11:51am

the best way is to capture the commands that the wifi adapter sends and receives to/from the ac units, and then ditch the wifi adapter and develop one with something like mysensors! to completely remove samsung cloud and the tokens they use

oigroig · December 6, 2018, 2:04pm

Hi,
I tried this new script (https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-plugin-samsung-air-conditioner) in homebridge and it works, it authenticates and it is possible to send the commands.
How can I use my Samsung air conditioner in the home assistant?

rauljerico · February 2, 2019, 12:57pm

OMG! It works perfect with Homebridge. The next step, Home Assistant. My knowledges aren’t enough to get it done (yet)

SebuZet · February 26, 2019, 8:12am

Hi,
If you have Samsung AC device which is listening on port 8888 (with new protocol) you can try custom component which I made to work with my unit. I hope it will work also for you.

github.com

SebuZet/samsungrac/blob/master/README.md

# Climate_IP - IP based climate device for Home Assistant
Implementation of ClimateDevice for controlling IP based AC units.
This component is able to work with any AC unit which can be controlled with REST API.
At this moment it is configured to work with:
* Samsung AC units available at port 8888 (new generation, REST API)
* Samsung AC units available at port 2878 (old generation, socket communication)
* Samsung MIM-H03 controller (REST API, port 8888)

Support for any unit working with REST API can be easily added via YAML configuration file.

## Installation
1. Download all files from repo to newly created folder
2. move folder custom_components/climate_ip to your <ha_configuration_folder>
3. In __configuration.yaml__ file add section:
    * For new generation units (REST API, port 8888)
        ```
        - platform: climate_ip
          config_file: 'samsungrac.yaml'
          ip_address: 'device_ip'
          token: 'token'

BR,
Sebastian

I have one that is working on port 2878

I managed to integrate my AC by using Homebridge, but can’t get it work in HA or SmartThings

Here is some useful links of someone will make integration for AC with port 2878 :
openhub: https://www.openhab.org/addons/bindings/samsungac1
node.js: https://github.com/CloCkWeRX/node-samsung-airconditioner
homebridge for port 8888: https://github.com/cicciovo/homebridge-samsung-airconditioner
homebridge for port 2878: https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-plugin-samsung-air-conditioner

SebuZet · February 26, 2019, 9:19am

@Modrica If binding from last link is working with your AC unit then you definitely should try my component. Just make sure that in configuration section as host you put some like 'https://device_ip:2878
It looks like this binding is using the same (or very similar) API.

Modrica · March 1, 2019, 3:51pm

@SebuZet I am geting this error when I use your component with my port 2878 AC

SebuZet · March 1, 2019, 3:57pm

@Modrica Which version of Home Assistant are you using? I wrote this component on version used by me - 0.87.1. in my version of HA there is such value

Modrica · March 1, 2019, 4:19pm

@SebuZet I am on latest beta, 0.89.0b0

SebuZet · March 1, 2019, 4:57pm

@Modrica As far as I know there were some breaking changes in components in latest version.
I will update my HA to the latest version in weekend and check what’s wrong.

tillberg · March 1, 2019, 9:37pm

It works like a charm!

Using:
homebridge for port 2878 to control my AC-Unit from Apple Home App.

I have one question if someone can help me?
When i look in the logfile and in Apple Home-App, it shows Farenheit, is it possible to change to Celsius?
I cannot find any settings in Apple Home App.

Thanks everyone!

From Homebridge-log:
State updated: {“AC_FUN_TEMPNOW”:“79”}

SebuZet · March 3, 2019, 9:16pm

@Modrica New version for latest HA is available.

@tillberg

homebridge for port 2878 is working grat here too, but will be best to get it directly in HA… @SebuZet is trying to help us with “AC port 2878”
