No Response - HELP #70

Open Khazanedar opened 4 years ago

Khazanedar commented 4 years ago

Hi there,

I have this light strip (which is RGBWW) and I’m using this WiFi controller with it. Under the Magic Home app it shows the controller as V4.

I’ve successfully added it to homebridge via the homebridge-magichome plugin. The lights show up in my home app. The problem is they permanently say “no response” in the Home app. The Magic Home app still works with no issues, and also shows that the device is connected locally to wifi.

What I’ve tried:

-Fresh install of homebridge as well as the plugin

-restart my router

-restart my phone

-assigned a static ip to the light strip

-gave the same name to the light strip in the magic home app as well as the config file

-researching answers on reddit/google

I was so excited to be able to control these lights via the home app, and I’ve spent hours trying to fix this. Can ANYONE help me? here is my config.json:

``{ "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge 4A69", "username": "0E:A5:84:DB:4A:69", "port": 51007, "pin": "584-15-022" }, "accessories": [ { "accessory": "MagicHome", "name": "LED Lights", "ip": "192.168.0.3", "setup": "RGBWW", "purewhite": true } ], "platforms": [ { "name": "Config", "port": 8581, "platform": "config" } ] }

Hi there! Easy fix. Your lights are mislabeled. They are actually RGBW not RGBWW. RGBWW is for lights with both cold white and warm white channels. 5 in total. You only have 4 channels. Just change your config to RGBW and you should be set.

Ah, I wish you were right, but the lights do have 5 pins as well as the WiFi controller.

Zacknetic commented 4 years ago

Yes. One is for ground ;). 5 pins. 4 channel. 1 common ground

Give my suggestion a try, if it doesn’t work I’ll help you troubleshoot further. But I have a feeling.
