Automate Your Roborock Room Cleaning with Home Assistant (PART 2)

[@tylermcleod9214]

Thank you for your detailed and helpful walk through! This was exactly what I needed to get my vacuum integrated and running by automations through Home Assistant

[@zeo-tropic]

Thank you for your efforts in making this series on the Roborock

[@chaimvazana8836]

Thanks for this video. was very helpfull. Do you know if there is an option to activate roborock app routines , which are allready set in the App? If not, I was successfu,l in using the commands in vacuum mode but could not set the robot to work in Mop mode only . Any Idea ?

[@ProjectSmartHome]

My work around for the mop is to manually fit and detach the mop based on what cleaning automation is running. I previously had a notification to remind me to fit the mop when the automation to mop the kitchen was going to run. I've just had another look at the documentation and I see that there is a "mop attached" sensor. I've just updated my automation for the kitchen floor mopping so that it checks to make sure that the mop is attached. If it is disconnected then I will get a notification to fit it. I haven't found a way to do exactly what you asked. This is the best that I have managed to do. Its not perfect but its not to much of a problem for me. If you come across away to do it then please let me know.

Thank you for this! Saved me so much time!!!

At 5:22, I missed whatever it was that you did (was it offscreen?) to download the logs.

[@Srkn911]

settings > sytem > logs ...... and dowanload

[@ProjectSmartHome]

When you disable debug logging a file similarly named to "home-assistant_roborock_2024-01-12T11-11-42.133Z" will be downloaded to your PC. You can then use this file to get the information that you need.

Pro tip. Copy the block of code from your logs that has your room ID and Name, and Copy the block of code that has your room room ID in the 3rd step, and paste them both into chatGPT, and tell it to match the rooms by the 2nd ID number in the first block of code, and give you a list of room names and their first 2 digit numbers in the 2nd block of code. I referred to it as XX, YYYYYY, ZZ, and chat GPT gave me a full list of rooms, and their room numbers, in like .1 seconds.

Thank you! Finally I make it!

[@thymon13]

Thanks for your tutorial : How can we specify to vacuum without washing?

[@ProjectSmartHome]

I've not found a way to do this. So I remove the mop and only add it when I'm mopping a room. I have a notification on Google/alexa that reminds me to fit the mop before the mopping automation starts. Not ideal but works.

[@djbastoni_au]

Found it useful thank you. Was easier to follow along compared to just the HA documentation. I had issues with the logs though, I couldn't get the full logs from the integration entities menu, it would only give me the config file from there. I was able to go to the full system logs and filter for roborock so it was only a slight bump.

[@djbastoni_au]

Nevermind - didn't realised once you click on 'disable debug logging' it auto downloads the logs. Still a HA novice here!

[@ProjectSmartHome]

Glad it helped!

[@KylesYTU]

where do you get that last custom vacuum card? It doesn't show up for me

[@ProjectSmartHome]

It's a mushroom card. You can install mushroom using HA HACs.

[@awesomebazinga]

Hey, thanks for the video! Can I create an automation that would start the vacuum everyday at certain time? Thanks again

[@ProjectSmartHome]

Hi, yes this is what I have working in my home. I set my Roborok to do a vacuum and map every other day on an automated schedule. Below is the YAML automation code for getting the vacuum to run at 8.30pm, in the kitchen on a Tues, Thurs, sat and Sunday. I also use a toggle helper so that I can easily switch the automation off if don't want it to run. alias: Clean - Kitchen and Dining Room description: "" trigger: - platform: state entity_id: - input_button.clean_kitchen_dining_room to: null - platform: time at: "20:30:00" enabled: true condition: - condition: state entity_id: input_boolean.clean_disable_enable_vacuuming_automations state: "on" - condition: time weekday: - sat - sun - thu - tue action: - service: vacuum.send_command data: command: app_segment_clean params: - segments: - 22 repeat: 2 target: entity_id: vacuum.roborock_s7_maxv mode: single

[@nughett0]

I was wondering if you can change whether it mops or vacuums certain area. The second thing is how to create an automation in which I can randomly choose a room to be cleaned.... for example I have a button for each indivual room, I click some of them to be on, choose whether to vacuum or mop and it would create a list of variables representing selected rooms and run command app segment clean afterwards.

[@ProjectSmartHome]

In the "What features will you support" section. Of the link below, we can expect some enhancements to the integration that would cover the asks you mention. Like you, I hope they come soon. www.home-assistant.io/integrations/roborock/

Hi there, I noticed that you have added the Nest protects into home assistant, this is surprising as I did quite some searching and came to the conclusion that is was either impossible or costly.. how did you manage to add them?

[@ProjectSmartHome]

I've got a new Nest Protect to add to my home so I'll do a video on how to add it to Home Assistant.

[@IQ44444]

@@ProjectSmartHome nice thanks!

[@pablosuarez4762]

Hello, is it possible to use xiaomi vacuum map with roborock integration?

[@Guiazca]

I could not clean a specific room, try everything but nothing happen just clean all house

[@christian1603]

What service does a full clean (so no specific rooms or zones) ?

[@ProjectSmartHome]

I don't have a full clean setup, I mainly have single room cleans setup using buttons. You could easily create a job and list all of the segments that you want to clean in one job. The closest I have in I have one single job that clean my hall, reception and family room, as these rooms quite often need to together as they get a lot of use. I also get the vacuum to clean twice so that vacuum cleans the room in both directions in a crash hatch.... in my view it does a better job. service: vacuum.send_command data: command: app_segment_clean params: - segments: - 16 - 19 - 23 repeat: 2 target: entity_id: vacuum.roborock_s7_maxv

[@WiseNickVZW]

How Paul, why did you stop making videos? If it's something you enjoyed? It's a helpful video and a good start

[@ProjectSmartHome]

I've just released a new video today. Automating Electric radiators with Shelly Relays and Aqara Humidity Sensor. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXO5kGmmgpd1Y9Usi=rE07KN9xN2OrGDuQ

[@jordaynerjr]

They've now made getting the rooms way easier but how do I use the same call service you only vacuum the room and not to mop it too😊

[@ProjectSmartHome]

I haven't found a way to do this. I just take the mop off when I'm not using it. Not ideal!

[@huy_ngo]

Thanks for the video! This looks very useful! Edit suggestion: I saw you had blurred out your email during the setup but it’s visible at 7:54 mark of the video.

[@ProjectSmartHome]

Ok thanks!

Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!

WHAT DEVICES ARE SUPPORTED? If you can add your device to the Roborock app - it is supported. However, some older vacuums like the Roborock S5 must be connected using the Mi Home app and can be set up in Home Assistant through the Xiaomi Miio integration. Home Assistant Documentation for the Roborock integration can be found here.... www.home-assistant.io/integrations/roborock/

[@Tjomsasen]

So these automations cannot be used with devices connected through the Miio integration?
