Hi @zak45

I have been using the plug-in under Windows for some time now and it works really well. So thank you very much for your work.
Even though the actions are always carried out, I get the following error messages:-

The "error connecting" seems to occur randomly, however, the "Unit Unknown" occurs when a command is issued. (the command still works though)
It really isn't a big problem to me but just wondered if I could fix easily?

Thanks for any help.

@StanHD
Hi, happy to make you happy (more or less) !!!

for the Unit unknown error:
this one occur when check device ID during Set Level command.
Do you have replaced any pre-generated device (push button) by a selector ?? this could explain that.

for the Error Connecting to Broadlink device error:
plugin try to do regular connection to the broadlink device:
every 2 minutes if you manage the temperature device otherwise every 5 minutes. check & try to see if any network failure occur at this time !!

Thanks for the fast reply. I haven't changed any of the push buttons, but I will check everything through. I have a "Sky Q" Wifi network which uses a dual band router with a mesh of 4 repeaters meshed throughout the house to move hdtv around using proprietary hardware / software. This is very reliable but maybe the errors are in some way caused by the Broadlink swapping between the connection points. (The system presents as a single ssid).

Must stress though that the plugin works really well so a few log errors aren't a problem

someone help me please!

the version on pypi (0.4) is buggy , not able to be installed automatically with python v 3.x.
You need to take one from dropbox (0.3) and install it manually.

First of all respect for the pluganators and all the forum info. Had problems on the syn domoticz package, now on the rpi2 debian works flawless. Only troubled with the webimport function. Did the usual stuff chmod 777 and chmod +x, does anyone know how to open the webserver. The broadlink import switch was succesfully added btw.

Sorry Zak,which version from Dropbox?

this one :
python-broadlink-master.zip; you should be able to find on the forum how to install it.

this is related to no-windows OS;
Have updated plugin_http.py on Dropbox; just download and replace the one in plugin directory.
let me know.

I skipped the web import and did it manually with jsonbutton jsoncode and jaonsublr. Succesfull import. Some devices from the import work but most don't. Even if i execute the code in ssh. Changed all the rights, Is the code to long? Is it double? Wrong format? Last step 2 make me happy , thanx

you need to replace existing __init__.py file with this one on your broadlink folder: here, we speak about module, not plugin.
Do not forget to make a backup before, of course.

Great module! Had problems with livolo codes and learned them again, much shorter code now and it works. Ok i miss one from the kitchen but thats livolo bit buggy. Thanx again for the effort and help. This noob has the broadlink module and the ha bridge for alexa works like a charm. Now a good backup

the version on pypi have a problem with python 3. download the version 0.3 on the dropbox : python-broadlink-master.zip
and install it :
just decompress on some folder, go to the folder and enter : pip3 install .
do not forget the dot at the end
