"Learn Code (Couldn't learn code, device not found)"

[bksnbriefs]

This is the code I have so far: { "platform": "BroadlinkRM", "name": "BroadlinkRM", "hideScanFrequencyButton": false, "hideLearnButton": false, "hideWelcomeMessage": false, "hosts": [ { "address": "redacted", "mac": "redacted", "isRFSupported": true, "isRM4": true } ], "_bridge": { "username": "redacted", "port": redacted } }

I am able to see the see the "Learn" and "Scan Frequency" toggles in HomeKit. When I attempt to toggle the "Scan Frequency" button, my plugin log immediately says: "[BroadlinkRM] [INFO] Learn Code (Couldn't learn code, device not found)"

I've tested the scan frequency function in the Broadlink App and I am able to successfully learn and execute these RF codes in the app (they are on the 434.1 MHz frequency according to the App). I just can't get it to learn the hex code from within HomeKit.

That suggests that, for some reason, the plugin isn't connected to the device. You won't get errors because you've manually added hosts - so it trusts you know what you're doing. First, I'd suggest removing the hosts section and let it auto discover the device. Unless you segment your network, you shouldn't need a hosts section. Also check if the device is locked.

@kiwi-cam - Thank you! Your suggestion to remove the hosts section and let the plugin auto discover the device worked!
