Xiaomi Mi Flora [Temp/Light/Moisture] BLE Sensor

[joostnl]

I'm trying to install your script on my fresh Domoticz installation.
I followed the wiki, changed my domoticz server with username and password.

At the botom deleted all predifind sensor and added only my first sensor:
With the IDX numbers from the devices list and bluetooth adre.s

print("\n1: Anthurium (Anthurium)")
update("C4:7C:8D:65:CC:27","139","142","141","143")

When executing i get the following error:

Hi all. I'm trying to let Mi Flora work, but with no success. I have other BLE devices, Nut, working.
I get some errors, sometimes "device busy" other "no route to host". Any advice?
I'm on Domoticz latest beta and Bluez latest version.

Thanks

[empreur76]

hello,

we have change my Raspberry ip to 127.0.0.1 into the script and all it's ok for me.

[IDANIT]

RaspberryPi 3, Raspbian Stretch.
I follow the wiki, all installation, coping, making etc went fine, but I stuck on "Finding the sensor's Bluetooth Address". Got this error messages:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~/bluez-5.44 $ sudo tools/btmgmt le on
Set Low Energy for hci0 failed with status 0x11 (Invalid Index)

Can anyone help me please?

[remb0]

I see that the original github code is forked many times (with improvements) maybe it's handy to check if the forks are better?

[woody4165]

I saw too that a day ago there were some improvements on github.

I've tried to understand where are the changes and where to help make to change here, but I'm not an expert coder.

I saw that there is an index.js with this description, "Fixing the odd value reading."

If I can be any help let me know.

Thanks

Thank you! Changing my ip to the script, WITHOUT http:// did the trick.
So at ip: 192.168.2.13 (for me my domoticz ip)

I only get this warnings sometimes:
~/bluez-5.44 $ connect error: Transport endpoint is not connected (107)
/bluez-5.44 $ sudo hcitool lescan Set scan parameters failed: Input/output error

But after:
pi@raspberrypi:~/bluez-5.44 $ sudo hciconfig hci0 down
pi@raspberrypi:~/bluez-5.44 $ sudo hciconfig hci0 up

Everything is working again, more people with this issue?

[martijnm]

I have three MiFlora Plant Sensors, which are working fine with this script. I'm thinking about ordering the RoPot as well, is this device supported by the script?

[EBOOZ]

I got my first Mi Flora yesterday and thanks to the Wiki, installation went (almost) flaweless!

My dummy sensor for logging moisture didn't update to the correct value (was always 0), and when I looked in the domoticz.py script, I noticed the URL was formatted incorrect. I modified the script so it also supports changing the status to Normal, Dry or Wet. Reading through the previous pages I assumed 20 is the right trigger for setting the status to Dry.

Original code:

Code: Select all

    # Update moisture
    val_moist = "{}".format(poller.parameter_value(MI_MOISTURE))
    domoticzrequest("http://" + domoticzserver + "/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=" + idx_moist + "&svalue=" + val_moist + "&battery=" + val_bat)

Modified to (where svalue 3 is Wet and svalue 2 is Dry):

Code: Select all

    # Update moisture
    val_moist = "{}".format(poller.parameter_value(MI_MOISTURE))
    if int(val_moist) >= 60:
        domoticzrequest("http://" + domoticzserver + "/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=" + idx_moist + "&nvalue=" + val_moist + "&svalue=3")
    elif int(val_moist) <= 20:
        domoticzrequest("http://" + domoticzserver + "/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=" + idx_moist + "&nvalue=" + val_moist + "&svalue=2")
    else:
        domoticzrequest("http://" + domoticzserver + "/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=" + idx_moist + "&nvalue=" + val_moist + "&svalue=0")

Hi,

Trying to use MI Flora/Flower Care with Domoticz, devices are OK/detecte under Domoticz but problem is more with this Bluetooth connection/distance from my Linux PC and the Mi Flora ... (same problem from the phone with FlowerCare application if I'm too far from the Mi Flora).

I'm also owning a XIaomi Gateway with door sensors, ceiling lamp and my interrogation is : MiFlora/Flower Care is displayed/detected under Mi Home application and I was wondering if it was possible to grab all values from MiFlora though the Xiaomi Gataway like it is possible for Door Sensors, ceiling lamp ... etc ... My Xiaomi Gateway is in the same room as my Mi Flora.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Laurent

The present Xiaomi Gateway does not handle Bluetooth so it is not possible. The reason you see the Flower sensors in the Xiaomi app is because your phone or pad has a direct connection to it (try turning off BT and you will find out).

However I heard there was a new Xiaomi Gateway coming supporting BT so maybe with that one.
