Daikin Madoka

The daikin_madoka component creates a climate device that controls a Daikin Madoka (BRC1H) wired controller over Bluetooth, the way the Daikin smartphone app does.

Daikin Madoka controller

This component supports the following functionality:

  • Set the operating mode: off, heat, cool, dry, fan only, heat/cool (auto)
  • Set the cooling and heating target temperatures (two-setpoint mode)
  • Show the current room temperature
  • Set the fan speed: auto, low, medium, high

Base Configuration

Section titled “Base Configuration”
# Example configuration entry
esp32_ble_tracker:


esp32_ble:
  io_capability: display_yes_no


ble_client:
  - mac_address: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
    id: madoka_climate


climate:
  - platform: daikin_madoka
    name: "Madoka Climate"
    ble_client_id: madoka_climate

Configuration Variables

Section titled “Configuration Variables”
  • ble_client_id (Required, ID): The ID of the BLE Client used for the communication.
  • update_interval (Optional, Time): The interval to check the device for state updates. Defaults to 10s.
  • All other options from Climate.

Pairing

Section titled “Pairing”

The controller expects to pair with a smartphone and compares a pairing code with it, so esp32_ble needs io_capability: display_yes_no or keyboard_display; the configuration is rejected otherwise.

On the first connection the Madoka shows a pairing code and asks you to confirm it on the controller. The ESP32 logs the same code and accepts it automatically, so confirming on the Madoka is the only manual step. The ESP32 keeps the bond, so the question does not come back on later connections.
