Thanks. I haven't used the app in a long time because the native broadlink app integrates with Alexa and ifttt directly now. I also never really used the tasker app version a lot as I ordered the other one and it was free. That said, I will see if I can remember enough to feel troubleshoot, assuming you have some other reason to need this method. First, is your on/off a toggle switch or are there 2 different buttons? If I understand, the off function didn't work and everything stayed on. This sounds like the broadlink did not record the code correctly. Did it work when you tried sending it directly? I don't recall exactly how to do that but I think you could send the command from a browser to check it. Or just try re-recording it.I also don't understand your last statement. If the off command didn't work and everything just stayed on, what do you mean when you said you tried to turn it back on?BeckyOn May 2, 2019 4:26 PM, harmonykorine <[email protected]> wrote:Hi, becky! I don't even know if you're still answering questions, but I've been trying to set up my broadlink RM3Mini with my smartthings hub and I finally did it! At least 50% of it... I configure both codes (on and off) for an Air Conditioner device, but for some reason only the off function works. When I try to turn it off on the smartthings app on my phone, it responds to the IR, turns off, but the switch on the app starts to load for a few seconds and just go back to de ON position. Then, when I try to turn the air con back on, it sends the OFF signal. I'm currently using the RM Tasker Bridge and a Nvidia Shield as Android Box. Hope you can help me with this Thanks for the attention! —You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or mute the thread.

My on/off is a toggle switch. The OFF function is the one that works.
When my air conditioner is ON and, through the app I tap to turn it OFF, it does. The problem is that the switch doesn't go to the OFF position. It bugs and returns to ON, even though my air con is still off. And after that, if I tap to try and turn it back ON, it fires the OFF signal again - I hear the beep - which does nothing since the on and off signal are different.
I have tested the codes directly in the broadlink app and in the RM Tasker and both of them work.
When I paste the codes for the Smartapp on the Smartthings IDE it comes back with the following error

error java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The JSON input text should neither be null nor empty. @ line 66

I've seen the previous issue posted about this error, tried to make de adjustments, but it didn't work. Maybe the problem is in the naming.
I named my device Air Conditioner and in it I added two code buttons - on and off.

Once again, thank you so much for trying to help me with this! You've done a great great job with the codes - I have tried others before finding yours!

Sorry I wasn't clear. By toggle, I meant a switch where the on and off are the same command. I think I get it now, though. This doesn't sound like a naming issue but a bug in my code. Let me see if I can take a look, hopefully by tomorrow. It will take me a little bit to remember how I set it up though. Would you please let me know exactly which of my codes you are using, by name? Is it a smart app, a device handler, or both? Sorry, there were a few options for how to set it up and that will help me remember. I will make sure what I have in GitHub matches changes I may have made in my own account as well. I've seen that would message before but need to recall why. I think it was when the device was not properly associated with the hub, but in that case neither command would work. I'll let you know what I find.On May 2, 2019 10:10 PM, harmonykorine <[email protected]> wrote:My on/off is a toggle switch. The OFF function is the one that works.

I think I see it. Are you a coder yourself? I ask because I think it's about the sendevent code I added to the on and off command sections of the rm bridge version. I was maintaining that one better than the tasker one after I made my choice. If you write code and that makes sense you may be able to fix it. If that's not you, no worries. I can try it but have to admit my memory is a little fuzzy on it. If I'm right though, it is just an update to the device handler and you won't have to reinstall any devices or the app.On May 2, 2019 10:10 PM, harmonykorine <[email protected]> wrote:My on/off is a toggle switch.

Sorry for my confusion about the toggle button. But yes, the ON and OFF are different on this remote.
The codes I'm using are the

Broadlink LAN SmartApp
https://github.com/beckyricha/Broadlink-RM-SmartThings-Alexa/blob/master/Broadlink%20LAN%20SmartApp

Broadlinkswitch device handler
https://github.com/beckyricha/Broadlink-RM-SmartThings-Alexa/blob/master/Broadlinkswitch%20device%20handler

Unfortunately I'm not a coder. I don't think I'd be able to fix the issue on my own, even if I knew what it is

I am attaching a new device handler to try, but I have no way to test it. I did find some things that seem to have changed since I did all this. I no longer use the Broadlink eControl app. They have a new one called IHC that already integrates nicely with Alexa and I think also with IFTTT, but not with SmartThings directly. The RM tasker app does not seem to work with the new Broadalink IHC app, or at least I can't get it to. Make sure you are using eControl or that you figure out how to record codes using the RM tasker app. It says you can do so, but I don't see that function anywhere. That's the reason I can't really test it without starting a much more complicated effort that might mess with my working setup. Because I never had a lot of good luck with the RM tasker app, I settled on RM Bridge, which might be worth a try for you if this doesn't work. I had made some upgrades and fixes to that version as users reported bugs. I don't recall all the steps I took or reasons different things worked back then. However, I took a section of working code from there and moved it into this device handler. if it works it will be just dumb luck, but worth a try. Before changing anything, please look at the device you are trying to control in the IDE and make sure it has content in fields labeled BLURL, BLmac, onCodeID and offCodeID. If all those are there, go to the next step. If not, it has not properly recorded and imported the codes in the RM tasker app. If the codes look OK, try replacing the device handler. You should be able to just replace the existing device handler completely with the content of the attached text file in the IDE, then save and publish for yourself again. It should not require changing your devices or reinstalling the smartapp, but you can try those steps if this doesn't seem to change anything. Thanks.Becky

I've replaced the device handler and it works! It now fires both ON and OFF signals and the button on the phone app doesn't bug when it's clicked.

Altought it is working, when I installed the smartapp it reported an error:

and, whenever I turn it ON or OFF I get the following:

I do not know if this is a major issue, since the device is properly turning ON and OFF as it should, but I though it would be better to run it past you.

Still, I deeply appreciate your help! You are amazing!

I'm glad it's sort of working. I'm not sure why the bugs. Are they giving you problems in the phone app or just in the IDE? I'm not sure I will be able to figure out why without all hte apps installed to be able to test it.

No, they're not. Everything has been working like a charm. I've even created some automations and routines and all of them are working. I've no idea what those bugs are about. Oh, well...

Anyways, thank you so much for your time and attention! I wouldn't have been able to make it work if it hadn't been for you!
