A/C control via Alexa and Broadlink RM Pro+

A demonstration of how I control my A/C using voice commands through Alexa

[@SonnenShades]

How did you do this? I don't see any option in the app to let you control an air conditioner with Alexa.

I also have a LG ac and its working fine with broadlink. The only issue is the wind speed. When you turn it on the wind speed is set to low. Theres no voice command to make it high. I want the ac to turn on at high speed.. any solutions?!

[@loayaziz9656]

is there any workaround? I couldn't get my Alexa to control my AC

In the back end, I also have a Broadlink RM Pro+ (IR and RF blaster) and the RM Plugin app running in an Android box acting as a bridge for Alexa.

Very good video but how to control the temperature because the default is 23 degrees which a bit too much. I need to stick with 24

[@orlypalomar]

Broadlink now has full support for changing the temp setting. In that video, I was still using a go-between solution, running RM Plugin on an Android TV box, to send commands from Alexa to the Broadlink RM. But with the recent developments at Broadlink, it now has native support for changing the temp setting. Just say; "Alexa, set temperature to 24 degrees". And so far, based on limited testing, it seems to remember the last temp it was set to when you power it off. I'll do more testing in the coming days. I am still using RM Plugin for other things but have started migrating them slowly to Broadlink's IHC app.

@@orlypalomar Hi I was very happy if you can help me please I have the rmpro + but when I add devices like LED lamp or TV it detects nicely in alexa app but when I add air conditioner it does not recognize me through the Alexa

Any command to set the fan speed manually?

[@orlypalomar]

If you use IHC, yes, I believe you can ask Alexa to set the fan speed to a certain setting (ie. low, medium, high, or 1 - 5, etc. Depending on the A/C model) I prefer mine on Auto and if I need quick cooling, I just tell it to "turn on Living Room AC Turbo"

[@joseramongarcia_]

Can you give it a try? I'm using Google Home, and IHC, but cannot find commands for fan speed. Also, "turn on blablabla Turbo" really works? great!

[@orlypalomar]

Tried it just now. Apparently, you can't change the fan speed via voice control. I've never found a need for it so it took me this long to find out. Setting the temp works, though.
