Add multiple devices #2

Hello, I’ve managed to add one of my airconditioner units in my homebridge. I have another unit in my bedroom. Is it possible to add multiple units in the homebridge plugin? If so, how should I add the second unit?

Many thanks!

Hi Calvin, nice to hear you are using the plugin! If the other unit is also connected to your wifi network, it should be automatically recognized as well. The plugin tries to detect all units on your local network (via bonjour) and adds all of them.

You will need to use the same operator ID on all units, but that's a fairly realistic scenario if you can control them both from the same smart m-air app.

Thanks for the fast reply! You are completely right, one of the units I accidentally had hidden in homebridge. Now I can see and control both units from the Home app. Much better as the standard app they provide!

Thanks again! 😁
