Hi JimT, many thanks for your replay.
I try adrres you gave me but no one work.
I have 3 new air unit who keep IP address on my local network like this :
IP : 192.168.1.58
HOST : daikinap60715.local
pls see attacche file who I can see at http://192.168.1.58/
no authentication is request
(pls note I’m not a developer, I’m only a maker and OH user…)
Thanks!! 192.168.1.58.pdf (62.7 KB)
I have the same issue with the new BRP069C4x wifi interface. The feedback I got from Daikin Belgium is that they will be using this type of interface for their current and future products …
the github thread basically describes how the communication works, next step will be to incorporate this in a new type of daikin binding.
But as I am not a developper, I can only offer my possibility to help testing … hopefully somebody will pick this up.
well I did try the Airbase App (which is rubbish) and I couldn’t get it to sync the time so I gave up and manually entered it.
Its unclear how and when it syncs the clock.
I’m curious. I live in QLD, no DST, and I just set the date/time on the aircon once and never thought about it again. I have absolutely zero use for the date/time on the aircon, but I do realise it’s displayed on the controller on the wall. Is that the only reason why you’d like to set it programmatically? If it has DST settings / proper timezone, shouldn’t it auto-adjust for the DST changes?
I tend to check the time in the controller twice per year when DST starts or ends.
I think that if sync is enabled, it only syncs when the airbase app is loaded.
I don’t see a massive need to add the binding - I guess it would be nice to keep the time accurate, but not sure if there’s any way way to trigger a sync once per day (or whatever) frequency.
I’ve seen on a couple of occasions that if multiple commands are sent in a short period (for example from a rule), then the 1st command doesn’t ‘stick’. Is this your scenario too?
This one command sets mode, temperature, fan speed and power.
All parameters have to be sent in the command - even the unchanged ones. If you get too clicky or send commands close together, the second command sends the ‘old’ values that were read from the controller, and overrides the 1st command. (Hope that makes sense).
I need to think on how to resolve this, but it hasn’t made it very high on my todo list since I worked around it
thanks for the update,
another question about the FAN speeds , there are 5 levels is that correct as my display only has 3 levels is there a hidden levels between low,med,high?
ie are there actually 5 speeds + auto
It might depend on the controller. Someone else (I forget who) added the other two fan speeds - they believed there was a difference between fan speed 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 even though the wall controller only shows the 3 speeds.
re: the commands in quick succession not doing what’s expecting, I’m thinking that polling the status rom the Airbase after successfully sending the command should do the trick
