Support for Broadlink Rm2/pro

[merlin051]

Anyone know how to get the bridge to talk to a Broadlink IR/RF blaster?

Great, have you got this working fine?

[audiofreak9]

No, sorry to say I just Googled: "Broadlink IR/RF blaster API" and it seemed descent after quickly reading. It allows HTTP calls, which is what you are after.

[merlin051]

Yeah I've already read that article, got to the point when I needed an a droid device as a other bridge and stopped reading.

[audiofreak9]

Yeah, even this github project requires an Android intermediary device: https://github.com/beckyricha/Broadlink-RM-SmartThings-Alexa

Sorry for the joykill!

[merlin051]

I might have to write something to do this!

If you can read Chinese (or translate) here is the SDK: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B65vYtefY0h2aE1LdWF5RG9sX00/view

My Chinese is a little rusty.

I spun up an android vm as I don't own an android and ran the bridge in that. The I used rm commander tools to generate the code. My home automation system then runs a batch file that contains the code. So far it works pretty well

+1 for a 'native bridge' -- the android tasker plugin doesn't work here anyway.... The broadlink is otherwise pretty nice, and very cheap; handles 433Mhz devices too which is quite cool.
