Samsung Air Conditioner

MarcoAlmeida · May 30, 2022, 10:27am

Does anyone have the WindFree working and can share the complete solution?

Sorry, bit I’m a bit lost in the thread,

metropt · May 30, 2022, 2:17pm

Yes, you can use this to have access to windfree option: https://github.com/veista/smartthings

w35l3y · May 31, 2022, 11:14am

What did you mean?

I checked this repository and didn’t see anything related to addition of windfree option.

AC Preset modes

matomk · June 9, 2022, 10:21pm

Any idea how to enable ports on Samsung AC? I should have port 8888 available but when scanning open ports, neither 2878 or 8888 are open. I cannot connect to the AC to get token, my model is AR09NXWSAURN. Any advice or help is welcome Thanks

MarcoAlmeida · June 14, 2022, 4:45pm

I’m probably missing something here, but how do I get my devices to be controlled by the custom integration and have the extra feature after installing the integration and restarting Home Assistant?

My AC still does no show the new features.

This repo deserves more attention. I wasted my whole day setting up restful commands (successfully, after many attempts, but for sure less elegantly than using this integration), while here is the definitive solution and it was super easy to set it up. Thank you for linking it.

For no reason the smartthings integration disappeared from devices&integrations. On the logs the only thing I can see is that the integration was loaded:

How can I fix this?

EDITED: It looks like samsung change something on authentication. Added the integration again and it is ok.

rsingh · August 24, 2022, 5:14am

can anyone comment if this integration is still working well? and also can it be exposed to homekit?

rsingh · November 22, 2022, 12:39am

can anyone comment on the reliability of this? particularly someone using a windfree aircon?

brinkgit · March 27, 2023, 2:28pm

Hello,
I am using the smartthings integration togeter with veista/smartthings
(GitHub - veista/smartthings: A fork of the Home Assistant SmartThings Integration. This adds better support for Samsung OCF Devices.) for the windfree airco.

Works fine, almost all options are available. I am only missing the option to set ‘comfort mode’

Copy files from veista to '/config/custom_components/smartthings'
Add smartthings integration
That one creates a webhook which is tested by the integration
If OK it connects to smartthings.It asks for the token of the airco
Smartthings want soms answers on questions and then the connection is made.
Windfree airco is active in HA. It seems to find the files from veista on its own.

Hi,

I have successfully integrated my Samsung smartthings account into the home hosted HA.
I can see and control the ACs, but the values of the power and energy are not changing.
The energy was loaded initially with 76kwh and never changed . The power does always ay at 0W.
Also reloading the integration does not change the behaviour.

Did someone got this working?
Thanks a lot , Mark

Hello friends,

I tried getting the token for my Samsung Windfree 2019 AC, but I get an error message when I ran the actest.py command:

SamsungAC % python3 actest.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/Users/mjeshurun/Desktop/SamsungAC/actest.py”, line 1, in
import requests
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘requests’

Am I doing something wrong?Preformatted text

Hello,

See this topic:

Andrewk35 · September 21, 2023, 11:03pm

I’ve been trying to retrieve a token for my ~10 year old Samsung ‘Smart’ WiFi enabled AC to avoid having to consider a more costly alternative to incorporating into HA but have not been successful thus far. all methods that i’ve been able to attempt all seem to end up with an SSL error, notably SSL: CA_MD_TOO_WEAK. From my research, this is due to usage of SHA5 signature that is either no longer supported or able to be used?

Is there an alternative way to bypass this or re-sign a new cert that is currently compatible some how?

ivhazu · October 21, 2023, 12:04pm

Hello,

I tried different solutions to integrate the OCF Devices functions in my HA but nothing worked fine.

My Samsung AC doen’t have the 8888 or 2878 opened so I can’t use the samsungrac integration couse I’m not able to get the token from my devices
veista/smartthings is not being updated and i lose some important entities from the last official smartthings integration.
I’m not so skilled to modify climate.py and device.py as suggested by JRFabbi in this post.

For that reasons I tried a more dirty solution based on rest command.

Fisrt of all I read from the API the value of the capability

####      entities      ####
  - platform: rest
    name: "Device_name_acMode"
    resource: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{device_id}/components/main/capabilities/airConditionerMode/status
    method: GET
    headers:
      authorization: !secret smartthings_token
      accept: 'application/json'
      user-agent: 'Home-Assistant'
    value_template: '{{ value_json.airConditionerMode.value }}'
    scan_interval: 5

  - platform: rest
    name: "Device_name_acOptionalMode"
    resource: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{device_id}/components/main/capabilities/custom.airConditionerOptionalMode/status
    method: GET
    headers:
      authorization: !secret smartthings_token
      accept: 'application/json'
      user-agent: 'Home-Assistant'
    value_template: '{{ value_json.acOptionalMode.value }}'
    scan_interval: 5
    
  - platform: rest
    name: "Device_name_acFanOscillationMode"
    resource: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{device_id}/components/main/capabilities/fanOscillationMode/status
    method: GET
    headers:
      authorization: !secret smartthings_token
      accept: 'application/json'
      user-agent: 'Home-Assistant'
    value_template: '{{ value_json.fanOscillationMode.value }}'
    scan_interval: 5
    
  - platform: rest
    name: "Device_name_acFanMode"
    resource: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{device_id}/components/main/capabilities/airConditionerFanMode/status
    method: GET
    headers:
      authorization: !secret smartthings_token
      accept: 'application/json'
      user-agent: 'Home-Assistant'
    value_template: '{{ value_json.fanMode.value }}'
    scan_interval: 5

Secondly I set some command to change the capabilty value

Finally I create a card (mushroom template) with some buttons to control all the capability

Screenshot 2023-10-21 135709

I hope this could help someone but anyway I’ll be very gald to receive some suggestions to improve my configuration!

In particular on the card, I would like to use Simple thermostat but I’m not able to create new buttons and use the rest_command on these.

Thank you for sharing this. I optimized a bit the retrieval part.

rest:
  - resource: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{device-id}/status
    method: GET
    headers:
      authorization: !secret smartthings_token

Maybe it’s possible to combine status and commands eventually as a template. I am having a look.

Hope it helps some body else as well

psadeazevedo · December 22, 2023, 10:32am

@viennacalling Cool, thanks for sharing. For a while I have been trying to implement something like this but to allow me to turn off the display. Have you explored the API and found a command that will allow us to turn off the display ? This is specially useful during the night if we want to automate the turn on\off of the internal units and not have the annoying display lighting the room during the night.

viennacalling · December 22, 2023, 9:06pm

not sure. maybe it’s the custom.donotdisturbe mode… you can find the commands available for your device here: https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/devices though they lack of documentation
