I thought of the < group > app, but I cannot add my kaku remote somehow.
Copying the remotes is not possible I think, you’ll have to pair each remote with Homey.
I was thinking of using virtual knobs, or boolean logics variables.
Creating knobs takes more time, but
with knobs you can use Homey as remote too. Example:
Creating boolean variables is a lot less time consuming. Example:
Coding explained: K(aku).R(emote) Ch(annel)1 B(utton)1
.
We have to create flows for every unique button (f.i. Remote1 - Channel1 Button1 On), which activate the common virtual knob or flip the common variable to Yes or No; that’s 4 x 40 = 160…
Example for Remote 1:
Code: R1.1-40 = R(emote)1 flow1 of 40 flows
(‘ingedrukt’ = pressed)
(‘druk op de knop’ = push the button)
(‘keer om’ = flip)
At THEN I used both knob and variable, only the preferred one is needed
And so forth, until button # 40,
“Channel4 Button4 Off”.
And then, a similar flowset for every other remote.
.
We need one knob or variable and one flow for every common remote button
(f.i. Channel1 Button1 On), that’s 40 each;
Examples:
Using the variables:
(‘veranderd’ = Dutch for ‘changed’)
Channel1 Button1 On
Channel1 Button1 Off
Using the virtual knobs:
Channel1 Button1 On
Channel1 Button1 Off
And so forth, until button # 40,
“Channel4 Button4 Off”
Build time:
Well, 160 + 40 = 200 flows
40 knobs or variables
3 mins a flow + knob/var = just around 10 hours
