homebridge-windmill-ac
This Homebridge plugin provide an accessory for Windmill Air Conditioners.
How It Works
This plugin exposes both a thermostat accessory and a fan accessory. The thermostat accessory controls the air conditioner's mode and temperature while the fan accessory controls the air conditioner's fan speed.
Thermostat
The thermostat accessory allows you to control the air conditioner's mode and temperature. HomeKit's modes are mapped to the Windmill Air Conditioner's modes.
| HomeKit Mode | Windmill Mode | |--------------|-------------------------------| | OFF | Turns off the air conditioner | | HEAT | Fan | | COOL | Cool | | AUTO | Eco |
Fan
The fan accessory allows you to control the fan speed on the air conditioner. HomeKit's 0-100 fan speeds are mapped to the Windmill Air Conditioner's fan speeds.
| HomeKit Speed | Windmill Speed | |---------------|----------------| | 0 | Auto | | 1 -> 33 | Low | | 34 -> 66 | Medium | | 67 -> 100 | High |
Configuration
First, get your token from the Windmill dashboard.
Finding Your Token
- Login with your Windmill credentials to the Windmill Air Dashboard
- Navigate to your device
- Navigate to the Device Info tab
- Click to copy your AUTHTOKEN
Easiest Configuration
I recommend using the homebridge-config-ui-x plugin or HOOBS to configure the plugin.
