Could you please enable debug mode. I suspect the problem might be that the aircon units are not in the same subnet as Homebridge or not reachable…

Hi, thanks for your suport.

So i can successfully ping the aircon from the raspi.

6.1.2022, 13:03:21] [MitsubishiAUNZ] Failed to process platform discovery. Fix the problem and restart the service. [6.1.2022, 13:03:21] [MitsubishiAUNZ] SyntaxError: Unexpected token T in JSON at position 0 at JSON.parse () at MelviewService.discover (/usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge-airconditioner-mitsubishi-au-nz/src/melviewService.ts:80:30) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:96:5) at MelviewMitsubishiHomebridgePlatform.discoverDevices (/usr/lib/node_modules/homebridge-airconditioner-mitsubishi-au-nz/src/platform.ts:71:19)

Hmm… Ok, I have to release a new version with a debug message showing the bad JSON being received to figure it out. In the meantime, could you please let me know a few things?

• are you in NZ or Australia?
• what’s the AC unit?
• what’s the Wi-Fi module?

Please allow some 2 days for me to push these changes that can give us further information on your issue.

Cheers

• I'm living in Switzerland. Does it just work for NZ or AU?
• MSZ-HR50VF
• MAC-567IF-E

[aurc]

Correct, only for AU and NZ! The cloud service under the hood for Mitsubishi units is different in different geographic locations, and have different specs and data formats. That then explains the failure to parse the data, as it might not be receiving a JSON at all.

In that case, I will close the issue. Sorry for that… You may want to find a plug-in in your region.
