SmartIR - Control your Climate, TV and Fan devices via IR/RF controllers

Thanks a lot. He merged mine and kept the code I put :slight_smile: 1402.

Thnak a lot for the help. Feels good contributing.

Hi,

is there anyone using Haaska in conjunction SmartIR ?

I noticed that climates are identified as thermostat so you can only change the temperature but not all the other features.

Buenas tardes.
Yo tengo el mismo error.
Conseguiste eliminar el error?
Un Saludo.

Que? No habla espagnol…:thinking:

I made a config for the LG LP0817WSR

Is it possible if you are using the smartIR plugin to also use you normal remote control?
So that if you are using the normal remote control from the AC that homeassistant also knows wich setting is pressed on the remote control.
I have SmartIR set up and I can send commands to my AC and that is working. But I want to be able to use the normal remote control also.

You can use the normal remote as well but other than on/off status there is no way for HA to know the state of the AC.

Hi
I just create a Json file to HTW AC device. How can I share the JSON file?
Regards

  • Create a Github account (if you don’t have one already)
  • Fork the repository
  • Add your file(s)
  • Commit your changes
  • Create a Pull Request (PR)
  • Wait for the owner to approve and merge

Done! Thank you!

I got this addon loaded and got my AC unit added. I had to record all my own codes as my model was not listed and I am also in the US so I use F instead of C. All works well but when I advertise this to homekit the only controls I get are Cool / Heat and Off with temp settings. I am missing Fan_Only and Dry options. Does anyone know if those can be added to homekit?

Thanks

Fan component help, please:
Hi guys, I’m trying to integrate better my Prana heat recovery fan into HA. So far I’m able to turn it on/off and set low/high speed - I have separate remote buttons for each. The problem is that the fan supports 10 different speeds, from 1 (low) up to 10 (high), to increase/decrease fan speed I have two IR remote buttons: Fan + and Fan -. How can I add these functions? Thanks

after adding your custom files in custom directory, it gave me an error this smartir not found (hass log).

Are the following sensors still only used as display only or are they (secifically the temperature_sensor) used to control the AC?

temperature_sensor
humidity_sensor

Hi all,

Love the component! Makes using IR/RF soo much simpler.

I’ve got a basic IR fan that uses multiple presses of the same button to set speed, mode, etc (total 5 buttons, you can see in the file linked below). Speed is set independently of power (on/off) - i.e. pressing the speed button will never turn the fan on or off.

I’ve got it pretty much working, but when I change the fan speed it’s turning the fan off and then back on.

JSON codes

I assume you’re using a Broadlink device with a sensor cable?

It’s in the name - “_sensor”. Sensors are for reading data: you can’t change what a sensor is saying.

Having said that, you can use that sendor data to control the A/C.

For example, I have an automation that will turn the heater on IF the temperature is low enough 15 minutes before my alarm goes off.

Hi all, i have integrated my heater in HA through SmartIR and broadlink RM4 mini.
All is working with thermostat card commands but i want to show the state of heater (on/off) through binary_sensor set in smartIR climate entity, when i turn on and off the heater through its telecommand.

binary_sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      stato_stufa_pellet:
        friendly_name: "Stato Stufa a pellet"
        value_template: "{{ states('sensor.stufa_pellet_power') | int(default=0) > 20 }}"
        device_class: power
        delay_on:
          seconds: 20
        delay_off:
          seconds: 20
          
climate:
  - platform: smartir
    name: Fiorina 74
    unique_id: fiorina_74
    device_code: 1234
    controller_data: remote.broadlink_sala_remote
    temperature_sensor: sensor.broadlink_sala_temperature
    humidity_sensor: sensor.broadlink_sala_humidity
    power_sensor: binary_sensor.stato_stufa_pellet

When the heater is in OFF state no problem, the thermostat card show its state correctly, but when i switch it ON by telecommand, the state does not update correctly but change in a kind of indeterminate state, and i cannot control the heater until i click on “Acceso” button. (“Acceso” means on).
I upload a figure where you can see that neither “Spento” button nor “Acceso” button is selected:

ON State
on

What I’m doing wrong?

Thank you.

Try to add power_sensor_restore_state: true

Great, it works like a charm.
Thank you very much :smiley:

Hi Folks, Been using this component for a while now, and loving it.
I have two broadlink rm4 pros (one upstairs and one down stairs to controll the two aircons we have.)

Quick question, is there any way to get the fan speed buttons onto the main card, rather than a pop up? (lazy people here, too many clicks to change fan speed from low to high)
Or on a separate card?
Seems the main items we use are, cool, heat, dry, temp set and the fan speeds.
