Python control for Broadlink RM2, RM3 and RM4 series controllers
|
||
|
===============================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
A simple Python API for controlling IR/RF controllers from [Broadlink](http://www.ibroadlink.com/rm/). At present, the following devices are currently supported:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* RM Pro (referred to as RM2 in the codebase)
|
||
|
* A1 sensor platform devices are supported
|
||
|
* RM3 mini IR blaster
|
||
|
* RM4 and RM4C mini blasters
|
||
|
|
||
|
There is currently no support for the cloud API.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example use
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Setup a new device on your local wireless network:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Put the device into AP Mode
|
||
|
1. Long press the reset button until the blue LED is blinking quickly.
|
||
|
2. Long press again until blue LED is blinking slowly.
|
||
|
3. Manually connect to the WiFi SSID named BroadlinkProv.
|
||
|
2. Run setup() and provide your ssid, network password (if secured), and set the security mode
|
||
|
1. Security mode options are (0 = none, 1 = WEP, 2 = WPA1, 3 = WPA2, 4 = WPA1/2)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
import broadlink
|
||
|
|
||
|
broadlink.setup('myssid', 'mynetworkpass', 3)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Discover available devices on the local network:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
import broadlink
|
||
|
|
||
|
devices = broadlink.discover(timeout=5)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Obtain the authentication key required for further communication:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].auth()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Enter learning mode:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].enter_learning()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sweep RF frequencies:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].sweep_frequency()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Cancel sweep RF frequencies:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].cancel_sweep_frequency()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
Check whether a frequency has been found:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
found = devices[0].check_frequency()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
(This will return True if the RM has locked onto a frequency, False otherwise)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Attempt to learn an RF packet:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
found = devices[0].find_rf_packet()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
(This will return True if a packet has been found, False otherwise)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Obtain an IR or RF packet while in learning mode:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
ir_packet = devices[0].check_data()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
(This will return None if the device does not have a packet to return)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Send an IR or RF packet:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].send_data(ir_packet)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Obtain temperature data from an RM2:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].check_temperature()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Obtain sensor data from an A1:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
data = devices[0].check_sensors()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set power state on a SmartPlug SP2/SP3:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].set_power(True)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check power state on a SmartPlug:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
state = devices[0].check_power()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check energy consumption on a SmartPlug:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
state = devices[0].get_energy()
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Set power state for S1 on a SmartPowerStrip MP1:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
devices[0].set_power(1, True)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check power state on a SmartPowerStrip:
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
state = devices[0].check_power()
|
||
|
```
