Already a PR for this :) #191 |

Thank you, but I only see information about IR devices is there a chance for RF exactly window covers? |
Still in progress, I will continue to develop in February. I'm getting covid this early month and we are spending chinese new year now :) I don't have RF device to test, I think they are the same for the plugin, when it's complete please have a try. |
|
Thank You, happy new year and lot of health. |

Hi 0x5e - I hope you're feeling better,. Allow me to purchase you a device - this is the one I am using. Give me your PayPal and I will send you money :) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08R3P83NN?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 |
|
Thanks @VinneyUK , I already have the IR remote controller and several IR device to test, no need to buy for me :) |
|
No problem. Can I ask for a small feature request when you build RF support in please? The RF device I control (LED fire) requires the power button (which is now learnt in the Tuya app) is pressed twice is short succession to power on or off, select LED flame types etc. You able to add a repeat trigger to the switches with a predefined delay, please? |
I'm not sure if it's a generic feature. maybe you can use tuya/homekit automation to complete this? |
|
Added in 1.7.0-beta.26, please have a try. |
|
There is the same problem wich was before update. |
|
@0x5e I'm having the same issue still with RF device hub. Looking at your release notes, I can't see any reference to RF device?
|
|
Might need to clean accessory cache. 2009 error is okay for IR/RF device I think, they have a new API to fetch data. |
|
Hello, I have tried with this device and it didn't work. You can check some logs below: |
|
@felipehjcosta
And If your hub have temperature or humidity sensors, I still need device info json which includes extra data, see readme troubleshooting section. |
|
@0x5e Sure. You can check the responses below:

|
@felipehjcosta Looks good, I can treat update the config, restart homebridge, then clean accessory cache, (maybe need restart again), and let me know if it's working or not. |
|
I updated the config, cleaned accessory cache and restarted Homebridge but It didn't work 😢.
Besides, the device has temperature or humidity sensors. As you requested, the device info json: |
|
hub issue: sub device issue: |
|
The device showed up! Indeed, the temperatura and humidity sensores aren't been displayed. How can I rename them? They are part of the hub. |
|
Switch to control mode: And if restart homebridge. |
|
On Tuya website, the product type of the device is: I'm using this config now: The value presented on the accessory is the air conditioner target temperature . |

@VinneyUK seems IR API doesn't support RF... please try this and post the result: #218 (comment) |
@felipehjcosta the config seems good. the value presented on the accessory, you mean hub device or sub device? |
|
@VinneyUK I've submitted a ticket to tuya, unfortunately the answer is: RF device is not supported by cloud api yet, and no future plan to support at present. You can create tuya tap-to-run automation to support this, it also have ability to delay execute, so your requirement double-click the button can also be supported. And actually, whatever IR or RF device (except AC category), they are all stateless, using tap-to-run automation can reach the same goal with the same user experience (which is not so good). |

Maybe look at a bond bridge. Those have a plug-in for HomeKit thru HomeBridge by another independent author, I have one myselfI have one myself, & it works very well.It works by cloning the remote, both IR as well as RF remote controls. So I am able to do that to several ceiling fans in my house, as well as a remote control power outlet for outdoors in a fountain, I even used it on a remote for a bicycle alarm that I put into a car that is stored with the battery disconnected just in case anyone jacks it up to steal the catalytic converter… I can just tell Siri to turn any these things on or off. Sometimes they can get in the opposite position if you use the remote plus voice commands, but the author of that plug-in even has a toggle option. There actual BOND unit itself, if it can actually ID the remote by its registration information / frequencies, it can auto program all of the functionality of the remote. But if you have some type of a RF related requirement, even though they do not technically support a ton of devices, you can clone a lot of buttons as on or off buttons at the very least. Yes, it’s another piece of hardware as well as another plug-in, in HomeBridge to set up. But it might be a way to give you RF control. It works brilliantly for my ceiling fans which I bought in 2009 that are pre-smart home. It handles high, medium & low for the fan speed, it handles, clockwise/counterclockwise rotation of the fan, it also handles the light as well as the full dimming range of the light. Just a thought, in case you have not looked at that. Might be worth researching that bond product to act as an RF blaster. Mine respond very quickly to Siri requests over my HomePods.RandySent from my iPhoneOn Feb 15, 2023, at 10:09 PM, gaosen ***@***.***> wrote:

I think I found the schema on Standard Instruction Set
Standard Status Set
============================ And what's is been displayed on Home app: Air Smart AC Controller - Temperature and Humidity I have another kind of Air controller that shows current temperature on the Cooler/Heater (Air tile) instead of a separate tile. Is possible to do event if the controller and the air have distinct configurations? |
|
@felipehjcosta It's hard to do so at present. one device only relate to one accessory, AC accessory are not able handle multiple device's event. I will think about it. |
|
I have noticed two behaviors so far:
|
|
@felipehjcosta thanks for the feedback. the first issue don't worry about it, it's just a warning, some special product also have this warning. the second one, I will update a version later and please help me have a test. Update: I'm curious why your sub device |
Thank you. Ive managed to get Tap to Run working, my only gripe is im left with individual switches for each of the flame and coal colours (each have their own unique RF freq learned in the TUYA app)
Anyone got any suggestions around how I can tidy these up? Something like how the Star Projector has been setup with a grouped accessory: https://github.com/SeydX/homebridge-star-projector#info |
unfortunately I can't get bond bridge in the UK... I had looked at that previously before getting the TUYA variant. .. |

Understood & a shame, the Bond works really well for many of these RF remotes etc.Good luckRandySent from my iPhoneOn Feb 17, 2023, at 12:04 PM, VinneyUK ***@***.***> wrote:

Have any of you checked sonoff RF bridge? |
Yes, it’s not compatible with my RF codes. :( got 3 sitting here collecting dust |

This is all the api responses with |

Thanks @felipehjcosta . I will implement IR AC status code maybe later. |
Hello, I use Tuya RF remote control to operate 433mhz window covers.
These virtual cover devices are visible in Tuya IoT as separate devices (as in the smart Life application). They are visible in HomeKit but as devices not supported.
Is possible to ad it to plugin?
Below is a link to the device I use.
https://expo.tuya.com/mobile/product/906048
I can add details from IoT or Homebridge but tell me wat.
I tried with the homebridge-tuya-ir plugin but the RF devices were not visible at all.
