Hi Jurgen, is it possible to add the curtain-motor remote-control in Homey?
You can try if itâs working with cover.
Hi,
Ok, first i need to get it work in the Tuya app i think?
Greetings, JasperâŠ
True, first add it to tuya app on your phone.
Hi I can see my sockets in tuya app, but they are not available in homey app. I have had them in homey but now they have disappeared 091a5f0a-02c2-4cca-b6fc-caac6d0ce28b
Did you update to v5.0.0 recently?
A power cycle could resolve it
No not yet, i did a recycle and all of a sudden it works again
Hi,
What about the power metering capability? I can see the power consumtion in the tuya cloud app but it is not available in Homey. Is this correct? If so, will it be implemented?
Thank you,
G.
You mean the tuya smart app on your phone, not tuya cloud app on Homey I guess.
A.f.a.i.k. the Tuya API does not provide the possibility to add metering functionality. It is in Tuyaâs hands, not the developerâs
@Jonas_Andersson2 Sometimes it reminds me of windows⊠The reboot miracleđ€Ș
If everything else fails try rebootingâŠ
Any plans on adding support for dehumidifiers?
You can control almost all non-supported (mains powered) Tuya devices by using Tuya Cloud Execute a Scene card in flows.
Example:
Diffuser control via Tuya Cloud âExecute a Sceneâ card
At your phone:
Add the diffuser to the Tuya app.
Create 2 âtap-to-runâ scenes inside the Tuya app.
-
A scene for âSwitch diffuser & led onâ
-
Dito for the âoffâ function.
-
- To give you an idea, an overview of my tap-to-run scenes:
- To give you an idea, an overview of my tap-to-run scenes:
-
- The scene itself:
- The scene itself:
(Deprecated, for Legacy api only:
Now wait for 10 mins . This is because Tuya refreshes once in 10 mins. Otherwise you wonât find your fresh created scenes @ your Homey.)
At Homey:
-
Go to âŠMore > Apps > Tuya Cloud > Configure App.
Hit theRefresh Scenes
button.
Or
Restart the Tuya Cloud app. -
Create a new virtual device*** (app: Virtual Devices); Call it for instance âDiffuserâ.
-
Create 2 flows for this device.
-
-
- WHEN Diffuser = ON,
then pick a THEN card for the Tuya Cloud app called'Execute a scene'
,
and find & pick your freshly created tap-to-run scene âSwitch diffuser & led onâ.
- WHEN Diffuser = ON,
-
Example flow:
-
-
- WHEN Diffuser = OFF,
repeat the above (at point 1.), but find and pick scene âswitch diffuser & led Offâ
- WHEN Diffuser = OFF,
-
Now you can control this device with Homey flows!
Added July '23:
Screenvid for adding IR blaster/hub buttons:
â Now restart Tuya Cloud app
.
Optional stuff:
When you have a google (nest) mini or compatible, and synced Homey with it, you can yell âHey google, switch diffuser onâ.
This is because your virtual switch appears in Google Home (sometimes after yelling "hey google, synchronise devices)
***)Homeyâs native virtual switch can also be used (it appears in Google Home too).
BUT you canât pick a custom icon for the tile, in Virtual Devices you canâŠ
@Peter_Kawa Good explination!
YW Jurgen. I already had a Dutch version of it. I use it from time to time with FB Homey groups
Just spiced it up a little. Perfectionist habit of mine
Hello @Jurgen_Heine,
Since Homey released the official V5 version I notice that everytime Homey is restarted my tuya dimmer isnât found anymore. Restarting the app solves the problem.
Any ideas?
And another problem which I never mentioned, but learned to live with (untill now). I have a problem with the dimming range of the dimmer. In the Smartlife app I can dimm from 0 to 100% and backwards, but in Homey it is like the dimming process from 0 to 100% is fitted like 3 times within the 0 to 100% dimming range of Homey. So in Homey I go from 0 to about 33% and the light is really on 100% and after 33% the process starts from the beginning. So in Homey 34% is really like 1% in Smartlife again.
Also any ideas on this?
Regards,
Dennis
It has nothing todo with V5, itâs because of a Tuya limitation for discovering devices every once in 10 minutes. Tuya added this limitation and I canât do anything about it. The problem with dimming is known, I am already looking at this probleem. Somehow there are different dimming ranges for devices. I only have my own devices to test, and the API doesnât give data to distinguish the devices. I am planning to add device specific settings for the dimming.
Hey Dennis!
- Why would you restart Homey? You only have to restart the apps with issues.
- I had similar dim setting issues a while ago, and someone pointed me to the fact Tuya dimvalues 0% to 100% are from 0.01 to 0.31 in Homey.
Other dimvalues go from 0.01 to 1.00
I never got the idea to drop a Q @ @Jurgen_Heine thoughđ€
So Jurgen, it sure would be nice if the dimvalues can be altered from 0.01 to 1.00 !
I hope youâll find the issue one day.
If you need a tuya lightbulb for testing, I can donate and send you one.
Thanx in advance.
