But forget I asked It seems I am getting mixed result when accessing from the internet so the problem is elsewhere. Thanks for the help
It's ok - no insult taken :) It was more that I did respond to your mail in less than an hour!

Re: Controlicz - Domoticz to Google Home/Assistant integration

Post by mantoz »

Hi,
I did some more tests with Controlicz and I'm very happy with it. Using Italian.

Only strange things I noticed:
1. blinds appear to be inverted. In domoticz they're set as "Blinds percentage" and icons (open/closed) are correct. In Controlicz/Google home they appear to be inverted, as I have to say "switch off the blinds" to open them and vice versa. I could invert them in Domoticz, but then I'd have the wrong icons in domoticz (open when they're really closed and so on). Any workaround available?

2. related to 1. --> In Italian we usually say "Open blinds" and "Close blinds" instead of "Switch on/off the blinds" (translated, of course). This does not work. I assume that this is a Google Home bug, and/or is due to Google Home thinking that my blinds are really switches.
Can you confirm this please?

Thanks,
mantoz

Hi all - the new Controlicz site is now live. The main addition is that it will now show your devices on your profile, importantly, it will tell you how Google/Alexa will see them.
More features to come - feedback welcome (and yes I know the Test is still not giving feedback!)

Awesome work on the new site!

Had to hack my own login by enterin in the browser console:

Code: Select all

document.getElementsByTagName('form')[0].submit();
because my username doesn't include a @ warming I got.
New users all have a email address as login I suppose...

Now I see two of my devices as: 'Color Switch' where the 'Google/Alexa' column is empty. The devices where I mentioned earlier:

Is this as expected?

anyone who doesn't have an email as their username (why not, it was the original requirement!) PM me, and i'll delete your Controlicz account, so you can recreate it :)

Hello everyone, i'm trying to set it up.
Https from internet is ok. My account is registred on the portal, please could the admin confirm this? (search: **falsini@me***), i've added a "controlicz" user in my domo system and everything seams ok.

In my google home i add the Controlicz, ask for user/password and permission, i allow everything but after some seconds google assistant doesn't show any Controlicz device and neither in the portal i can see my devices.

Could someone help? Thank you very much, i love this project!

Is your Google Home app running as UK English? Can you do this via Google Assistant on your phone - i.e can you type it, as it's clearly not understanding what you've asked for.
if the devices are showing in GH, then Controlicz itself is working and ready

You had two accounts in Controlicz - please use the one starting with lowercase 'o' - It seems to be working ok.

It shows English but as you can see some part is in Dutch so that could be something.

I will answer my own post ;-).

What I did with the google home was.
- Press the mute/mic button until I had a full reset.
- After that I just reconfigured the google home with the google home app.
- Controlicz started to work instantly.

Seems the problem is solved. Just a little hint for future reference.
