This utility is a simple python script to attach a few components of the Mediola AIO gateway to HomeAssistant or other MQTT capable hosts.
- Mediola AIO gateway v5 (not getting ELERO states reported from BiDi devices)
- Mediola AIO gateway v4/v4+
Reported to work:
- Mediola AIO gateway v6
Currently, the following devices are supported/tested:
- Intertechno push buttons
- Intertechno switches
- IR switches (also used for "other" 433MHz devices)
- Somfy RTS Blinds
- Elero Blinds
If you want another device supported by Mediola to be controllable through this script, create an issue on github.
If you run Home Assistant OS (HassOS), you can run it as an addon. Simply create a new folder "mediola2mqtt" in your local "addons" folder and copy the contents of the repository there. All configuration is performed within the add-on configuration.
If you do not run HassOS, the configuration is done in mediola2mqtt.yaml.
Configure your devices in the file mediola2mqtt.yaml / add-on configuration - have a look at mediola2mqtt.yaml.example for the syntax. If you have MQTT autodiscovery enabled in your HomeAssistant platform, then the devices will appear automagically.
The devices need to be known to the Gateway in advance, you need IQONTROL or
AIO Creator Neo for the initial configuration. Some steps, like configuring
Elero blinds, can also be performed by running mediolamanager.py.
You can retrieve a list of all
known devices by calling http://mediola.lan/command?XC_FNC=GetStates in a
browser. Check for type and adr fields.
The add-on supports connecting to and managing several Gateways. However, due to limitations in the docker architecture, this is only supported when running standalone and not in add-on mode.
If you need to enable multiple devices, you need to add an ID to each Mediola configured and assign the same ID to the buttons and blinds for this Mediola interface. This is necessary for sending commands to the "correct" Mediola.
The Mediola AIO Gateway supports a simple HTTP API for control and broadcasts status changes via UDP on port 1902 (1901 for v6). The script provides a UDP socket server that listens for the status changes, interprets them and publishes them via MQTT. This is useful for buttons/switches, but can also be used for the state of a blind (only implemented for Elero).
Controlling a blind or other device is done via HTTP, by interpreting MQTT messages and triggering the HTTP API.
This fork implements some kind of templating. You can define a set of properties and later refer to this set in the definition of the devices. This saves you from repeatedly writing the same values over and over which keeps the config short.
See mediola2mqtt.yaml.example
currently the following commends from the API are available wherever you want to override the default "up" and "down" values:
- open, up, on
- close, down, off
- stop
These commands are currently available for ELERO only, not Somfy RTS
- upstep
- downstep
- manumode
- automode
- togglemode
- longup
- longdown
- doubleup
- doubledown
- learn
- onpulsemove
- offpulsemove
- asclose
- asmove
