Homebridge Panasonic MirAIe AC Platform

homebridge-panasonic-miraie-ac-platform is a dynamic platform plugin for Homebridge that provides HomeKit support for Panasonic MirAIe air conditioners over MQTT.

How it works

The plugin communicates with your AC units through the MirAIe Platform. This means your units must be registered and set up there before you can use this plugin.

All devices that are set up on your MirAIe account will appear in your Home app. If you remove a device from your MirAIe account, it will also disappear from your Home app after you restart Homebridge.

Homebridge setup

Configure the plugin through the settings UI or directly in the JSON editor:

{
  "platforms": [
    {
        "platform": "Panasonic MirAIe AC Platform",
        "name": "Homebridge Panasonic MirAIe AC Platform",
        "userId": "[email protected]",
        "password": "********",
        "logLevel": 4,
        "suppressOutgoingUpdates": false
    }
  ]
}

Required:

• name (string): Will be displayed in the Homebridge log.

• userId (string): The username of your MirAIe Platform account.

• password (string): The password of your account.

Optional:

• logLevel (boolean): The minimum loglevel of the logs written to log file. 0 is off and 4 is Error level.

• suppressOutgoingUpdates (boolean): If true, changes in the Home app will not be sent to Comfort Cloud. Useful for testing your installation without constantly switching the state of your AC to minimise wear and tear.

Troubleshooting

If you have any issues with this plugin, choose the debug log leve in the settings (and restart the plugin). This will print additional information to the log. If this doesn't help you resolve the issue, feel free to create a GitHub issue and attach the available debugging information.
