A software bridge between certain popular Daikin™ HVAC units and MQTT. Monitor and control your HVAC from any MQTT-connected dashboard or home automation system.
N.B. This code has been independently developed using a mixture of observed behaviour and information freely available on the Internet. It is neither endorsed nor supported by Daikin in any way whatsoever. You use this software entirely at your own risk.
This project provides a two-way link between some Daikin HVAC units' WiFi interfaces and your MQTT IoT network.
daikin2mqtt runs as a background service or daemon to keep track of the availability of the HVAC units and provide an easy to use MQTT interface with which you can monitor and control the system. It sends regular updates via MQTT which are ideal for use on a dashboard or for data logging.
See our Wiki.
The connectivity of these HVAC units is known to be rather temperamental; units seem to appear and disappear occasionally even on well-configured WiFi networks. This project aims to smooth out these wrinkles as much as possible and provide a simple to use MQTT interface that will be accessible by most home automation systems and MQTT dashboards.
We adopt the old Unix™ philosophy of trying to 'do just one thing and do it well'.
We think that https://zigbee2mqtt.io does a great job of standardising its MQTT messages, so our message structure is inspired by theirs.
The predecessor to this project was the Daikin Integration in the https://github.com/SMerrony/aghast project. In turn, that project was inspired by https://github.com/ael-code/daikin-control .
Note the the Integration does not directly support specific HVAC units, rather it communicates with the network adapters that may be built-in, or added-to, various 'inverters' (as Daikin refers to their interior units).
-
BRP069B41 - the Integration has been extensively tested with the BRP069B41 adapters. We would expect all of the BRP069B41/2/3/4/5 adapters to work.
-
BRP069A41/2/3/4/5 - we believe that the previous models, the BRP069A41/2/3/4/5 should also work.
-
BRP072A42 - we expect that the BRP072A42 adapter would also work.
We do not expect the BRP072Cnn or SKYFi units to work.
Please let us know if you can add to the above information.
