Add the ability to pick a laundry program with HA like in LG app

Open dinde opened this issue 1 year ago • 10 comments

As talked in another issue:

From LG app I'm able to -Turn off remotely the washer

  • Pick a cycle program from app
  • Delay start from app
  • Pick spin speed / Dryer / Pre Wash / Wash options / Rinse+

Would be nice if it was a way to implement all app options here ! :)

In last release now is possible to select a program (standard program, not smartcouse / downloadcourse) to use for remote start. Change the single options would be complex (it is related to selected course and may vary for different devices) and also do not really fit with HA UI. Delay could be something to manage with HA automation. Please try and let me know.

@ollo69, thank you implementing this. I have just tried it out and it works!

Note for anyone that uses this feature.

  1. You must turn on the washer and enable remote start before you can use Course selection. This is the same behaviour as the LG app.
  2. Nothing will happen/change on the washer and the integration sensors will not show your selected course, until you press Remote Start. This is the same behaviour as the LG app.

Can you add please download course ?

@SerMirak ,

manage download course / smart course is quite complex because, as I see, there are different logic related to the device models. It will be in the future, but it require further investigation and time to implement and unfortunately I'm very busy on this period.

Thank you for this implementation, it is really useful! It would be great if we could choose also the "Water temperature" and "Spin speed", in this way we could get rid of the LG Thinq Application :) And it would allow also to have scripts with preconfigured parameters using HomeAssistant scripts (i.e.: mixed fabric / 30ºC / 800 rpm)

I have a branch that supports this. Unfortunately my approach is different to the way @ollo69 is looking at providing this functionally so I have some changes to make.

Also setting the rinse+ option (on Washing machines) from HomeAssistant would be a nice feature. I just started to use this integration to remote start my washer when the electricity is the best. I always use the rinse+ feature and it would be nice to automate that step as well. I'm aware that this would only be possible after remote start is enabled, but since I intend to use remote start anyway that fits my usecase at least :-)

@albinsunnanbo My branch also supports setting the rinse option provided your washing machine does. My PR has yet to be accepted. If you want to try now you can follow the Manual Installation instructions but clone from https://github.com/lancasterJ/ha-smartthinq-sensors.git and use the branch course-overrides-1
