Will it work with mi humidifier v.2?

[Aekung]

Hi,

I would like to ask if the plugin would work with xiaomi mi humidifier v.2 or only v.1 since there’s only v.1 model in your plugin setting according to the manual.

If possible, can u please post the picture of the one that work? xiaomi has so many humidifiers that I’m a but worrying I would end up buying the wrong one.

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi,

It is known that it works with SmartMi Germocidal UV Humidifier (zhimi.humidifier.v1):

and using some hacks (see this comment) with SmartMi Evaporative Humidifier (zhimi.humidifier.ca1):

Dear Russtone,

Thank you for the reply.

Sadly I have already bought one of the Xiaomi Humidifier and its miio model is deerma.humidifier.mjjsq which doesn't work with the plugin (or any as far as I tried).

Wonder if you could have a plan on updating the plugin to work with this model? Up on googled, I found this information that might be useful somehow but since I know nothing about coding so I can't be sure of. It's mentioned by @rezmus

`it's new mi humidifier, miio model deerma.humidifier.mjjsq

while i don't have device (yet?) i took a look at the plugin so i leave info here if anybody wants to add support. below you can find all props/methods supported by firmware.

{"method":"get_prop","params":["Humidifier_Gear","Humidity_Value","HumiSet_Value","Led_State","OnOff_State","TemperatureValue","TipSound_State","waterstatus","watertankstatus"]}

props

Humidifier_Gear - speed (1-4, 1 Low, 2 Medium, 3 High, 4 Humidity)
Humidity_Value - humidity value (0-100)
HumiSet_Value - desired humidity value? (not used by plugin atm)
Led_State - led state (0 - off, 1 - on)
OnOff_State - power state (0 - off, 1 - on)
TemperatureValue - temperature value
TipSound_State - sound state (0 - off, 1 - on)
waterstatus - water status (0 - insufficient, 1 - normal)
watertankstatus - water tank status (0 - detached, 1 - installed)

methods

{"method":"Set_HumidifierGears","params":[1-4]} - set speed (Humidifier_Gear prop)
{"method":"Set_OnOff","params":[0/1]} - set power off/on (OnOff_State prop)
{"method":"SetLedState","params":[0/1]} - set led off/on (Led_State prop)
{"method":"SetTipSound_Status","params":[0/1]} - set sound off/on (TipSound_State prop)
{"method":"Set_HumiValue","params":[0-100]} - set desired humidity value? (not used by plugin atm)`

I don't know if it can be useful to you if you are planning to upgrade the plugin to work with this new model. I am willing to help you test and try if you can guide me of what you need in order to do so.

Thank you and looking forward to seeing your reply.

Hey Aekung,

This plugin is rely on miio library to control humidifiers. So I think it is better to add support for this model to the miio library.

[Aekung]

Thank you very much for the reply.

I will try asking this in another thread which is about the miio library.

Again, thank you very much.

@Aekung can you share this humidifier to me? i will like to check some things so i can add extended automation support.

It still doesn't work. I hope it is implemented later.

Hi all, any news on that?

[nt0xa]

Hi @ArielZgo, I've already implemented miio replacement for this project https://github.com/russtone/miio-api and I'm currently woking on plugin update

I just ordered the New SMARTMI Silent Smart Air Humidifier 2 (With Display) and hope it will work with your plugin @russtone
Thanks for the time you are investing, your work and sharing with the community. 👍

[rezmus]

it won't work, because zhimi.humidifier.ca4 (with display) is miotspec device.

[DJay-X]

But is there a plugin that works with zhimi.humidifier.ca4 and miotspec?
Or could @russtone extend this plugin to also work the protocol?
Sorry my newbie questions. :) Thx.

Maybe it will be helpful for you rytilahti/python-miio#772

[malmentm]

Will it work with this? https://www.gearbest.com/humidifiers/pp_3004284366720564.html

[nt0xa]

Both models deerma.humidifier.mjjsq and zhimi.humidifier.ca4 are supported by plugin, so I am closing this.
