@hrushchov
may reason should be wrong IP address or not reachable.

@vchecco
I actually decided to use this one :
http://jarvishome.fr/index.html
Can ask for question like Room Temp / outside temp / Should it rain in next hour etc ...

Able to manage in the way I want and all stay local.

If i delete the hardware and create new with 127.0.0.1 I get the discover device. If i turn it on i get this in the log:

I'm running domoticz 3.8288 on raspberri pi 3, python 3.5.2, broadlink 0.5

P.S. On the latest stable i get the same error.

I got the same issue and successfully fixed it. So this is what i did.
when i installed broadlink again and also crypo and copied both to the /usr/lib/python3.5 i noticed that the one in the 3.5 has no capitol C for Crypto
i tried to rename it but that did not work.
Then i looked in the folder /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ and there is saw Crypto with a lot more files then in the 3.5 one.
So i copied that one "sudo cp -r /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/Crypto/ /usr/lib/python3.5/" restarted Domoticz and everything works.

Can we use Broadlink SP1 with this plugin already? I found protocol hack on net (https://blog.ipsumdomus.com/broadlink-s ... 0b4b397af1) but will it be implemented into Domoticz?

yes, the V4 is finished : could use Sp1 , sp2/sp3/sp3s, mp1, a1
publish soon.

[SzymonZy]

Does git repository at this moment include support for this sockets?

[omnisxin]

hi ,zark45:
I use domoticz 3.8791, python 3.4 in raspberry pi, for attached json files ,jsonSubIr.rar is backup seven months ago,jsonSubIr.zip is backup today,all from same phone e-control app,
jsonSubIr.rar can be generated correctly, but jsonSubIr.zip informs error "Error with json files to import "

trace the error ,maybe caused by these lines in plugin.py:
try:
with open(path+"jsonIrCode") as code_name:
data_code = json.load(code_name)
except ValueError: # includes simplejson.decoder.JSONDecodeError
return False

[zak45]

hi omnisxin

to be able to test, I need all ini files.

[omnisxin]

As described ,jsonSubIr.rar can generate ini files, I'll upload later,but jsonSubIr.zip inform error, didn't generate any files.

[SzymonZy]

@zak45 do you plan to support SC1 in V4 release?

[zak45]

@zak45 do you plan to support SC1 in V4 release?

Not yet part of the broadlink module.

[SzymonZy]

Are there any special circumstances that prevent adding this device in future?

don't think so... maybe you can made a request to broadlink module devloper:
https://github.com/mjg59/python-broadlink
if this become be part of it, I can try to include into the plugin.

Hi All,
Quick question.
I have the Broadlink RM2 plugin working for the mini RM 3.
Works fine!

One thing I wanted to do, was use my TV remote controller to set devices in domoticz, so i could use the colors on the remote to set all the lights in the house to the same color .

But the device doesnt update if I press the teached button on the remote controller. The RM does imitate the teached code, but not update the device in domoticz.

Is this currently possible with this plugin?

Thanks

What I had understood, you need some IR receiver connected to Domoticz ( made one myself using ESP8266 + IR receiver ). The RM2 device is just like your TV remote controller, only able to send some IR codes.

[domoticzag]

Hmm oke thanks, already thought so .

Did you use your own code for the ESP8266 if so could you share the code?
Or did you use the Easy ESP Firmware?

I have an ESP and IR receiver lying around somewhere

[zak45]

Or did you use the Easy ESP Firmware?

Yep, ESPEasy is the way to go
I created a dummy switch and a LUA script :

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

if devicechanged['IR'] == '16595143' then
    commandArray['433-VoletCuisine'] = 'On REPEAT 2'
    commandArray['433-VoletSAM'] = 'On REPEAT 2'  
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16586983' then 
    commandArray['433-VoletCuisine'] = 'Off REPEAT 2'
    commandArray['433-VoletSAM'] = 'Off REPEAT 2'  
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16631863' then 
    commandArray['433-VoletSAM'] = 'On REPEAT 2'
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16642063' then 
    commandArray['433-VoletSAM'] = 'Off REPEAT 2'  
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16582903' then 
    commandArray['433-VoletCuisine'] = 'On REPEAT 2'
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16593103' then 
    commandArray['433-VoletCuisine'] = 'Off REPEAT 2'
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16589023' then 
    commandArray['Portail'] = 'On'
elseif devicechanged['IR'] == '16635943' then
    if otherdevices['Garage - Porte'] == 'Closed' then
        commandArray['Garage - open'] = 'On'
    else
        commandArray['Garage - close'] = 'Off'
    end
end

return commandArray

So, in this way I can use my Logitech Harmony as Domoticz remote control

[domoticzag]

@Zak45 Thanks!

Hi,

I am having a strange issue.
It took me long time to locate the problem but I have found that when I comment out the line

Code: Select all

import broadlink

in the plugin.py file

then plugin starts and creates two new devices for discover and remote.
Of course in the log there is an error

Code: Select all

But when I uncomment the import line and restart my Domoticz then it freezes everytime and it is not responding.
I have tried to use broadlink module directly and my test script

Code: Select all

import broadlink

devices = broadlink.discover(timeout=5)
print(devices)

is working fine when I run it from the console.

Any advices?
