Is there any way to increase the limit of 30 RF commands for the Broadlink RM devices?

Yes, it is, unless there are some Homey limits, but what would be the use case ? Sofar you are first raising this… 😉

I’m sure there are others with the same question. I found several other posts in this thread asking about the limit but I didn’t find a response. Going all the way back to 2019

In my specific case it’s the amount of RF switches I have, many are 2gang. I just counted 49 separate buttons I would like to create RF commands for.

OK, that makes sense then ;-)) I wasn’t there yet 😉

So when you say there is an option to increase the limit, what do I need to do to make it happen? 😉

I’m asking because I just bought the Homey Pro and was pretty successful with adding my other smart home devices. Unfortunately, was disappointed to learn I cannot clone my 433 remotes for my switches. So, Broadlink is still the way to go. Unfortunately with Broadlink there’s a command limit. If I can’t add RF commands for ALL of my switches then that kinda makes or breaks the deal and I need to go and return the Homey. The return policy is 14 days here so I’m limited on time to decide if I’m keeping it or not.

I would say stick with Homey. Things will get better. And in the worst case or in the meantime you can always use an extra broadlink unit (those 30 commands are per Broadlink iirc)

If you know, what and how, you can always take Github code and make necessary modifications. 😉

I hope that this previously abandoned app, would be not your key deciding factor to keep it or not.

Try with the new experimental version - I did some test on my RM4 Mini but naturally it deserves much more intensive testing.

## Version 3.1.61 — Experimental - extended numbers of saved commands up to 90 and added backup/restore functionality

## Version 3.1.61 — Experimental - added RM5 Plus (not tested)

I recommend taking regularly copy of “backup JSON”, just in case something will go wrong. It shall get updated automatically upon change. In the worst case, I hope you have Cloud backups (eg. re-learning 30 commands might be nightmare).

In case of issue, after replicating the error, submit debug with some comments.

Thank you for giving it a try!

Based on your screenshot I’m not exactly seeing what you are:

 ![1000001972](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/3/b31902ba884c24d21bdb310569ca6e697aca67a3.jpeg)

When I select “command set“ I can choose the sets…

… but when I go back I’m still at command set 1-30. Do I first need to fully populate the first 30?

You need to apply the settings. But the learning shall continue incrementally no matter which set is selected, it’s for editing of the commands name only.

Right right, thanks again. Unfortunately I didn’t get to testing and loading all the commands in yet. Work got in the way. But this is the current behavior on my side.

Edit: maybe I should have mentioned that I’m seeing the same behavior when I try to switch between sets in the Homey web app.

Please try new test - [Broadlink | Homey](https://homey.app/a/com.broadlink/test/) - in case of issues, let’s continue 1:1.

Just to report back. I currently have almost 60 stored commands and all seems to be working fine. Thanks again!

…try to keep backup aside (in the device settings), it’s not throughouly tested and I believe you are the only one using it currently in such extend 😎

I just read a few posts earlier there’s a backup/restore function added to the app, Richard.

Just new with this app. Just bought a new Broadlink RM mini3. Are there by the way advantages to upgrate to the mini4? I can still return it…

Trying to learn IR commands for [this](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-bridge-control-ac-using-ir/146486/6) device. I do get this with all tries; I cant learn any command. In the Broadlink app, the option “Lock device” is off and the device has been restarted. It detects IR learning when using the Broadlink itself.

Error: “IR learning failed: tried long enough”. App version: v6.1.66. Some Diagnostics Reports:
