Ready to go Gree AC unit control and statuses reading from device (QuickApp)


Deivydas

Question

Hello,
I would like to share my first worth Quick App to control Gree AC Unit (Air conditionier).

 

This app was developed for my own requirements. I need it to write some scenes which automatically turn on / off ac when temperature is different from set in thermostat.


I would like to say thank for the people who have helped me to find the necessary information. Big thanks to these guys - https://github.com/tomikaa87/gree-remote who had made a lot of work and make the developing process less complicated.

 

It's doesnt work with fallowing models:

  • Gree Pular - it use different UDP packages, need to be debug

 

Ok, let's go to inistall it, what you need:

1. Make sure, that your Gree AC Unit have static IP address. Please enter this IP address to QuickApp variable.

2. When IP address is entered, click Pair Device button

3. If pair is success, you are available to control your AC unit

4. Statuses from AC device is updated after each 5 minutes, you can change this 

 

QuickApp version: v1.

Works with: Home Center 3

 

Take and use it, I'm sure that this app will get updates and additional scenes for automatization :)

any chance to make it work on Home Center 2? I have three GREE (with wifi) units, with static IP, would be great to be able to control them by fibaro.

  • Sorry, my script is just for HC3. I'm not a developer who write scripts for global usage, I write thems for personal usage.

     

    I see that different Gree AC units, have different packages, so cannot test them alls. When I have additional 3 gree ac units at home, i'll update this script to work for thems too and provide the exact model of thems.

    I was hoping we find somebody with HC2 that can transform your code :). Any programmer with GREE aircond and HC2 around here, please ? :).

     

    I looked into it, but I don't think I am capable of making it work :(...

    Dear All,

    I've found some really interesting feature. If you have problem with getting the KEY please do following:

    1)put correct IP and read all other properties such as MAC etc

    2) in the KEY position you will get "false"

    3) push again Binding button till you get blank in the KEY area

    4) then edit manually this area and pt there any random text

    5) Use binding again - you should get the Key instead of you random text.

     

    Then it should work. No idea how but it works.

     

    I see also that different AC want to get different packs and for sure you have to improvise with the infos that pack contains.

     

    The QA is great BTW - great job!
