Temperature Still Reverting to Celsius on 1.5.1

[noltondyer]

While controlling the device in HomeKit the first time, my AC sets to Fahrenheit, every time after, though, it defaults to Celsius. Plug-in debug mode is still reflecting a “false” value for useFahrenheit, even though “Default to Fahrenheit” is checked, and it’s set correctly in the config

[hillaliy]

I have OSK102 and I make all the tests on my AC. At my AC everything works perfect. The OSK103 is a little bit different. The Default Fahrenheit help when you want that Fahrenheit will be still True when you restart Homebridge.

Same issue on all three of my Midea U units on 1.5.1 and restarting Homebridge.

Home app shows Fahrenheit, turns on the unit fine, but now turns off the LED display on the front of unit. If I go to the Midea Air app and turn the LED display back on, it’s showing Celsius. If I toggle the unit off and back on via the Home app, it turns back off the LED display.

[hillaliy]

try 1.5.2-beta.1 Tell me if it fix the LED displey

[cdkii]

Updating to 1.5.2-beta.1 fixes the LED being turned off when controlling via the Home app, but the LED display is still being switched to Celsius.

[noltondyer]

Same here. Still defaulting to Celsius. What’s odd, the command being sent when displaying debug mode specifies “setFahrenheit: false” - even though the config correctly states true.

[cdkii]

Is there any info from the debug log would be useful in helping see what’s going on? I just tried looking and it all looks a bit insane to me with the 3 Midea U units and Cube dehumidifier info all scrolling past every 30 seconds.

Here’s part of it for one of the units... (The configuration is using “useFahrenheit": true)

The commands on the new Midea devices (U, Balnc etc....) are a little different. I can fix it only if I have the Midea API protocol. About scrolling past every 30 seconds it's supposed to be like this. The plugin ask the device every 30 seconds of it status. You can change it on advance settings but the state will be less accurate

I release new stable version of fixing the Led screen. 1.5.2

[noltondyer]

How would you be able to add support for the U. Is there any way I could help out?

If you can get the Midea Protocol. The old protocol was leaked to the net.

[cdkii]

I’m guessing there’s nothing useful on the Midea IoT Developer Platform (https://mis.midea.com/#/pre-login) since that seems to be more more ‘official’ access to their cloud platform. Also doesn’t help having to auto-translate everything from Chinese to figure out what’s going on on that site.

[hillaliy]

most of the Midea U devices don't work with this plugin. I think it's the new dongles OSK105. What's your dongle model?

[cdkii]

Yep. Just checked and all three are US-SK105. (Weirdly two are on firmware v. 1.0.7 and the newest one is on v. 150023082122. I checked for updates and all said they're on the newest firmware. So no idea on that.)

Everything works perfectly in HomeKit on these three Midea U units minus the unit getting toggled to Celsius on the LED display and in the Midea Air app. It continues to show in the Apple Home app as Fahrenheit, so my current workaround is just to leave the LED display off on the units.

I honestly appreciate all your work to get these working with HomeKit, even if it isn't fully supported. I read an article earlier this year that Midea plans to support the Matter standard, so I'm hoping they upgrade the existing models and that that will bring native compatibility with HomeKit. I wouldn't be surprised if it's only new models though.

[hillaliy]

Homekit native is always better

[hillaliy]

Try the last version 1.5.4 and tell me if it help

[hillaliy]

Fix on 1.5.5
