Wow… no data word, no quotes, no swear words, and it freackin turns on and off my fan!
keyfob works.
But with 2 devices entered, and both named the same, how will I keep track of which is which?
ok ok I will stop… I am having too much fun with this. I edited name…
I owe you another paypal contribution my friend!
I will be ready, after adding all 10 codes I learned, to go to next step if you are still willing?
The last step adding to HG is very simple.
if you have the HA-bridge code I created enable it. I believe I only have 5 devices available but you can edit the code to accommodate as many as you like.
the number of the HA-Bridge device in HG is the same as the device ID in HA-Bridge.
the IP that displays in the broadlink tab of HA-Bridge is the IP for the broadlink RM you need to reserve that IP in your router as each power cycle it will change if not done.
Humor me? I have no clue what this means! I feel I am sooooooo close…
Here is what I have written so far to try to document my painful journey:
download & load the hgx file
I believe you stated you already downloaded the file to HG
the write up looks good so far.
If you mean your

Yes, I did. But I have no clue what to do with it. does it somehow load into HG? or does it load into HA-bridge? In either case, how?
yep that’s it.
It is for HG so you can turn on/off devices configured in HA-Bridge.
To install into HG click on configure then programs then device and things.
click on actions bottom right and import program, browse to where you save the file then click import.
I see IP setting to set in it…
You have to click on it, configure and activate it then you can add HA-Bridge devices to groups.
hmm… so I now have a module group labeled ha-bridge, but all that is under it to pick from is dimmer 1 the dimmer 4… it does show a password; I erased it and no difference. I put in mk-123h-ssd instead of 192.168.0.13 is that why? or what is the password thing about?
I assume when it talks it will add MY devices I have in HA-bridge under the new ha-bridge module list? Is that it?
I’ve never tested using computer name and port
used IP and Port numbers
it will not show Device names you have to add those like you did when you added x10 devices
by default there are only 5 devices to choose from. Device 1 is device ID 1 in HA-bridge, 5 is device ID 5 in HA-Bridge
don’t worry about the password for now as that needs to be set in HA-bridge anyways and will ignore it if not set there.
OH. trying to set name and try one of my 3 taught ones but HG refuses to open in any browser by any means this m orning. will do a reboot in a while and try again.
I can’t get into HG since adding the HA-bridge program… going to try restoring from a backup to get rid of it for a test.
interesting… that made HG open again… later will add ha-bridge back in and try again…
looks like a port conflict.
Turns out it was not port conflict but maybe the HG loading too many images at once… flushing the sockets here: made HG load again.
So now that I am back, I imported your HA brdige program again, and knowing it adds 5 generic dimming modules, and these will correspond to HA-brdige device number, I added my ARM/DISARM keyfob AND IT WORKS! SENDS RF!
Tuicemen, THANK YOU AGAIN!! I am working on documenting my experiences here!
Tuicemen, it has been a bumpy ride, but last night my DS7000 security system armed by HG thru RM emulated RF keyfob command!!! And this morning it shut off at 6am, 6:01am, 6:02, and 6:03am using the range choice in timer settings!
Now I need to get back to work on documenting all this for other window’s user’s!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EXCELLENT HELP!
Glad you finally have HG doing what you want.
The Key really is doing baby steps, Trying to get everything working all at once is frustrating.
I’m confident your documentation will surely help others!
