You are trying to create an impossible path. Try this:

/home/pi/domoticz/broadlink_ini

That should work

I found out that you get the "can not connect to broadlink" messages in the log when you have a wrong annotation for the MAC address.

Normally you would write a MAC address like this:

Code: Select all

12:34:56:78:9A:BC.

The plugin however wants it to be written like this:

Code: Select all

123456789ABC

So no colon between the pairs.

Hi Reza,

Weird! I had that too! I thought I had made a mistake myself and corrected it. Seems more people are affected by this.

How to solve?

Open a terminal and change directory (cd) to the broadlink_ini folder. So enter this:

Code: Select all

cd /home/pi/domoticz/broadlink_ini

After that you need to change the ownership of the two folders inside the broadlink_ini folder. So enter this:

Code: Select all

sudo chown pi:pi -R *

That will make pi owner of all files and folders in the broadlink_ini folder.

Don't know if it is necessary but it works for me

dont work for me and i have same error:
2017-09-21 17:48:13.099 Error: (Rayan) ini file not found: /home/pi/domoticz/broadlink_ini/BroadlinkRM2-4-254.ini

[Sjonnie2017]

Hi Reza,

"Don't work" is somewhat vague. Can you explain what does not work? Do the folders have new ownership or not?

I had a similar issue and got it working so there is hope

Here is what I did:

1 - I removed the Broadlink device from Domoticz
2 - Emptied the broadlink_ini folder
3 - Remove __pychache__ folder from /home/pi/domoticz/plugins/BroadlinkRM2
4 - Restarted Domoticz by opening a terminal to the pi and entering

sudo service domoticz restart

5 - Created a new Broadlink device
6 - Made sure the ownership of the folders import and remote were correct (see previous post)
7 - Used the switch "Broadlink - command" to learn a new command from one of my remotes
8 - Saved the command (creates a new device)
9 - Presto

I know this happened to other people before but I did't see solution or it doesn't work for me.

I have tried to make this plugin work on freshly Pi3 running Raspbian Jessie following your WIKI

It says :

this code : learnedCommand=str(ir_packet.hex()) is pecific to python 3.5 or >, not work on 3.4

replaced by : learnedCommand=str(codecs.encode(ir_packet, 'hex_codec')) ( & import codecs ) to have it running in 3.x

but it does not mach the file plugin.py content, which is:

Code: Select all

learnedCommand=(codecs.encode(ir_packet, 'hex_codec')).decode('utf-8')

If I add

Code: Select all

( & import codecs )

the plugin can not run at all:

Open a terminal and enter the following:

Code: Select all

cd /home/pi/domoticz/plugins/BroadlinkRM2
sudo rm -rf __py*

Presto

PS. I am under the impression that you are a Windows user and this is your first attempt at Linux. Before diving into the wonderfull world of Domoticz on your Pi this might be a good place to start. It's been a great help to me

[Sjonnie2017]

Please help!

Hi, I know there is a command that will let you "find¨ your Broadlink and connect to it but I found it was easier to just enter the correct ip and MAC address in the hardware section of Domoticz.

In your log it shows

Code: Select all

2017-09-22 18:23:02.362 (test) Device LastLevel: 0
2017-09-22 18:23:02.362 (test) Connecting to: 127.0.0.1:000000000000
2017-09-22 18:23:02.427 Error: (test) Error Connecting to Broadlink device....

So you haven't changed the IP and MAC when creating the device. Try to enter the correct IP (your router should be able to tell you that - one of your wireless clients should start with RM****) and find out the MAC (again in most cases your router is your friend). Make sure you enter the MAC address without the colons (see one of my previous posts). If you've done that your connection should be up and running.

I've tried that as wel but same errors so I started as per wiki from discovering broadlink itself
