Broadlink RM MAX is not supported

Open danpeled7 opened this issue 4 months ago • 4 comments

I purchased a new Broadlink RM MAX which is the successor of RM4 Pro. however it is not discovered by python scripts and does not appear in supported devices. in home assistant i get a message : device not supported.

can you please add support for this device? thanks!

device documentation on broadlink website: https://ebroadlink.com/products/broadlink-rm-max-smart-home-hub

device information from broadlink app:

{ "Device IP":"192.168.1.146@80", "DID":"00000000000000000000348e894b6c7d", "SDK":"2.17", "Plug-in version":"1.6.8", "IoT Cloud":"World", "Routine traits":"Trigger", "S/N code":" ", "Data Cloud":"Other regions", "Firmware":"V62130", "PID":"0000000000000000000000008baf0000" }

Also RM5 plus (successor of rm4 mini) has same issue :(

I bought this device as well without confirming it would work with home assistant integration. 😔 I just wanted to add I notice this device does not show the lock/unlock option on the Broadlink app. It can be added on the new Broadlink Magic Home app and there it has an option to "connect to a 3rd-party" where it can be set as a server or as a client but I cannot find any documentation on that...

I am with you @joaofreire11 I also purchased it as a pack of items that were installed in my home and I did not check before accepting it. Now I am also in a dilemma if I should trash it and get an older version, or go the DYI way with a 433MHz antenna and an ESP32 :)
