Contribution - LG ThinQ Binding

Sorry not to be clear.
The error was cause by duplicated email on LG database, for some reason it allowed me to register the same email using Google SSO and manual registration.
After this was fixed at LG website I was able to detect and use my washer on Openhab.

Great ! Thanks for the explanation and for the files !

Enjoy !

Unfortunately the feature I’m looking for does not seems to exists.
My goal is to query Alexa how much time left on washer but it seems that Alexa API doesn’t have such feature.

But this is a great job and this binding is very maure for it’s stage.
Once again, thanks for your help.

You can write the remaining time to the alex text wo speak channel. So it should be possible that Alexa tells you the remaining time.

Yeah, I made a rule for that on washer state change and it worked.
But if anyone asks “how much time left on washer” Alexa cannot answer.

As far as I understand in Alexa docs on Openhab, for now, there’s no support for that. Also I haven’t found anything for that in Alexa API docs. Probably it will be on future API update.

You can try it with this tutorial. So you can fire a rule with a voice command and this rule will write the remaining time to the text to speak channel and Alexa will tell you it.
Unfortunately I was never able to set it up properly.

I would like to ask if there is anything new on this topic?

Not yet, mate. I’m working to send express cool/freeze (on/off) commands. I think next week I have news about this topic.

I’ll try that soon. Thanks for this idea.

Hi. Can i use the latest jar file or have i use the kar file of beginning of the thread?
Greetings, markus

Put the jar file in the OH-ADDONS directory. It’s enough for now.

Hi Nemer,

inside *-cap.json referred to one of my AC i found this:

    "SupportRACMode": {
      "_comment": "FuncSync_RAC모드",
      "type": "Enum",
      "option": {
        "0": "@NON",
        "1": "@AIRCLEAN",
        "2": "@ENERGYSAVING",
        "3": "@AUTODRY"
      }
    },

Those 3 functions are referred to the functionality that I was asking for. They can be all enabled together (or just one or two).

1 enables ion production
2 enables energy saving mode
3 enables autodry mode when the A/C is turned off

Is this enough for you or should I use debug mode and send you the trace file? (I have some difficulties in enabling debug mode because I recently moved my OH installation to a NAS [Docker] and I am still not very good at using Docker commands).

Thank you
Ciao
Simone

Can you send me the entire file, please ?

Of course. Here it is.

Regards
Simone

Hello, i am sorry for my question but i am really a noob. I have three LG AC and I have installed Nemer Binding.3.3.0
I would like to use your widget on habpanel but i don’t know how import YAML file. Anyone can help me please?

Hi, @gabasr581 . What widget do you mean ? This one I posted before ?

Hi @nemer , thanks for your answer. Yes I mean it.
I am using Habpanel and I see that i can import only widget JSON. I don’t know which is the difference between JSON e YAML so I don’t understand if this widget can be converted and used also in HabPanel or only in the openhab server interface

This widget was done to work only on OpenHab UI. There are a couple of AC widgets for Habpanel, but I’ve never tryed some of them.

Hi, I’m looking to get a LG Therma V heat pump.
Would that also be supported by the binding ?
Any experiences with controlling LG heat pumps anyone ?

You can’t convert (at least, in a easy way) an UI Component into a Habpanel Widget. It’s because they work in a totally different approach.
