Sensor Automation Fails in HomeKit with LG Window AC (LW1217ERSM1) about homebridge-lg-thinq HOT 12 CLOSED

in your log, "airState.operation":0 mean AC is off, matched your screenshot
can you try to collect some debug log white Homekit showing off and AC still on?

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

Sure, I'll have more data tomorrow. I have debug logging turned on.

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

I also publish test version v1.8.2-test.4, please pull and test it

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

Attached the log from last night. Around 2:11 am local time in the log I found the AC off, HomeKit reported the AC as ON.

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

this is log around 2:11

[3/27/2024, 2:11:03 AM] [LGThinQ] [c84cdce3-8a5a-12df-a0ba-b8165ff21cd8] control - Operation -  basicCtrl: {"dataKey":"airState.operation","dataValue":0}
[3/27/2024, 2:11:05 AM] [LGThinQ] ThinQ Device Received the Command

I can see homebridge sent turn off command, so strange if homekit still reported it as ON

and then 2:12, turn on command was sent

is this correct?

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

I have noticed a delay in homekit's status.

Here is what I see at 2:10 & 2:11 am.

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

in screenshot, current temperature at 74 degrees, it should be turn on?

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

I set the temp to 60 and use a remote Philips motion sensor with a temp sensor to trigger when to turn the ac on or off.

Below 73 turns on, over 74 turns off. The AC isn't in the room I'm cooling. I divert the air to a bedroom separated by a sliding door.

The AC should be off.

Last night this worked 90% of the time. Then gets stuck when the ac falls out of sync.

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

seem it happened when we received multiple on/off command at a same time
for example: automation OFF triggered at 1:00 and ON at 1:01, AC receive OFF at 1:00 and totally OFF at 1:03 so it's out of sync in Home app
I just refactor and added some debug log to version v1.8.2-test.5, let see

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

I'll install the new test build.

Are you able to see if the command is triggered by the AC's onboard temperature sensor? I suspect it may be reading a temp below 60 when it kicks on and then kicks off on its own.

I think I need to move the AC temp sensor probe to avoid the AC turning off using its own temp sensor.

from homebridge-lg-thinq.

Quick update, before stepping away for the weekend.

I moved the AC's temp sensor away from the air intake and the system ran as expected overnight with automation triggering on/off correctly. I think this resolved the glitch I was experiencing with the AC falling out of sync with HomeKit.

Thank you again for taking a look at this issue.
