Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Hi I brought a cheap one of eBay, advertised as an RMPro and having I real one, could see it was a fake. It had a QR on the bottom and had a completely separate app. It was wholly incompatible with the bridge. Maybe you got one of these? I would try it with the Broadlink Android/iOS app to confirm.

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

No problem. I am glad that it works for you. I would have more incentive to finish the direct plugin if the bridge was rubbish but it seems rock soliid. I really just wanted to prove to myself that direct could work but after I did that, the work to finish the plugin was not worth it for the ...

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Well, yes and no.

I did it and it works, imports rm bridge codes etc. But I never got it to a suitable point to post here as ISTR that I had UI issues. I still use the Android bridge as it has been vey reliable and much of my house relies on a working solution. I can no longer deal with the moaning ...

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Yes, I have 2 and it works fine. It is really down to whether RM bridge works with them.... and it does.

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Hi,

If you just want to learn once and then only transmit in future, the RMs should work fine. I thought you also wanted to also use the RF remote to trigger EG events which is the part that won't work.

I would just check that the RF frequency of the remote is 315/433MHz which is what Broadlink ...

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Hi,

I am not sure that Broadlinks will cut it if you are planning to use them as receivers as well as emitters. They can learn IR/RF signals but they cannot be permanently in receive mode AFAIK.

I also use the USB IRtoy in a couple of rooms and they are also cheap and great but do need to be ...

Re: BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Sorry,

I have only just looked back at this as it seems I was not getting notification on topic updates. I think it is an RM-bridge limitation to have names with no spaces, but I am not sure. Glad you got it working.

I have just found some Python examples of how to communicate directly with the ...

BroadLink RM2/RM Bridge Plugin

Hello All,

I have managed to hack support for the RM Bridge available here http://rm-bridge.fun2code.de/ using the LIRC plugin as a base. My python is rusty and I did not fully understand how the LIRC plugin worked so there is lots of superfluous code still in there, but it works. Just drop the ...
