About

This adds MQTT features to Ubiquiti Networks mFi devices.

This is version 3.2, which aims to comply with homie MQTT convention.

The implementation of the convention is not complete yet.

Compatible Devices

  • mPower Mini and mPower Outlet 3 or 8 Ports

  • mFiTHS, mFiCS, mFiMSW, mFiMSC and mFiDS

Warning

Use at your own risk!

Installation

Use a SSH client and connect to your mFi device. Enter the following commands

mkdir /var/etc/persistent/mqtt
wget --no-check-certificate -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/haxx0r07/mFi-tools/master/mqtt/client/install-client.sh -O /var/etc/persistent/mqtt/install-client.sh;chmod 755 /var/etc/persistent/mqtt/install-client.sh;/var/etc/persistent/mqtt/install-client.sh

save
reboot

Starting

/var/etc/persistent/mqtt/client/mqrun.sh

The script also starts automatically approx 3 minutes after booting the device (using rc.poststart).

Stoping

/var/etc/persistent/mqtt/client/mqstop.sh

Configuration

MQTT

Edit the file /var/etc/persistent/mqtt/client/mqtt.cfg and configure your server, topic and refresh time. Setting topic, refresh, mqttusername and mqttpassword is not mandatory. Defaults are topic=homie/[name of the mpower] and refresh=60 seconds

mqtthost=192.168.1.4
#refresh=60
#topic=my/topic
#mqttusername=myMqttUserName
#mqttpassword=myMqttPassword
port1=mFiTHS
port2=mFiCS
port3=

Configuring transmitted node attributes

You can suppress certain attributes (such as voltage) by editing the file mpower-pub.cfg. Set value to 0 if you dont need the data.

#enable (1) or disable (0) properties here
relay=1
power=1
energy=1
lock=1
voltage=0
current=1
mFiTHS=1
mFiCS=1
mFiMSW=1
mFiMSC=1
mFiDS=1

mPower Published data

The mPower device will publish messages every 60 seconds to different topics. Example:

homie/mpower-1/port1/relay=0
homie/mpower-1/port2/relay=1
homie/mpower-1/port3/relay=0
homie/mpower-1/port1/power=0.0
homie/mpower-1/port2/power=7.2
homie/mpower-1/port3/power=0.0
homie/mpower-1/port1/energy=0
homie/mpower-1/port2/energy=4
homie/mpower-1/port3/energy=8
homie/mpower-1/port1/voltage=0.0
homie/mpower-1/port2/voltage=234.9
homie/mpower-1/port3/voltage=0.0
homie/mpower-1/port1/current=0.0
homie/mpower-1/port2/current=4.6
homie/mpower-1/port3/current=0.0

Additionally - currently only at the start of the script - the device will also report:

homie/mpower-1/$homie=2.1.0
homie/mpower-1/$name=mpower-1
homie/mpower-1/$fw/version=MF.v2.1.11-mq-0.2
homie/mpower-1/$fw/name=mPower=MQTT
homie/mpower-1/$localip=192.168.1.26
homie/mpower-1/$nodes=port1,port2,port3
homie/mpower-1/$stats/uptime=2589629.67
homie/mpower-1/port1/relay/$settable=true
homie/mpower-1/port2/relay/$settable=true
homie/mpower-1/port3/relay/$settable=true
homie/mpower-1/port1/lock/$settable=true
homie/mpower-1/port2/lock/$settable=true
homie/mpower-1/port3/lock/$settable=true

mPort Published data

The mPort device will publish messages every 60 seconds to different topics. Example:

homie/mport-1/port1/mFiTHS 28.610001
homie/mport-2/port2/mFiCS
homie/mport-3/port3/mFiMSW

or

homie/mport-3/port1/mFiMSW
homie/mport-3/port1/mFiDS

Additionally - currently only at the start of the script - the device will also report:

homie/mport-1/$homie 3.0.0
homie/mport-1/$name mport-1
homie/mport-1/$fw/version MF.v2.1.12-mq-0.2
homie/mport-1/$fw/name mFi MQTT
homie/mport-1/$localip (null)
homie/mport-1/$nodes port1,port2,port3
homie/mmport-1/$stats/uptime 5441.57

# Control sockets via MQTT
You can control the sockets by sending `0` or `1` to the topic `<topic chosen above>/port<number of socket>/relay/set`

You can lock the sockets by sending `0` or `1` to the topic `<topic chosen above>/port<number of socket>/lock/set`

# logfile
The tool logs into standard messages log.

tail -f /var/log/messages

# Integrating into Home Assistant

This is an example how to define Home Assistant / Hassio.io items:

# mPort

sensor:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "Temperature"
    state_topic: "homie/mport-1/port1/mFiTHS"
    unit_of_measurement: "Celcius"
    icon: mdi:temperature-celsius
    value_template: "{{ value | round(2) }}"

# mPower

switch:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "mPower-1"
    state_topic: "homie/mpower-1/port1/relay"
    command_topic: "homie/mpower-1/port1/relay/set"
    payload_on: "1"
    payload_off: "0"
    retain: true  

Integrating into openHAB (Not Tested)

This is an example how to define openHAB items:

Switch switchmp "My mpower switch" { mqtt=">[mosquitto:homie/mpower1/port1/relay/set:command:ON:1],>[mosquitto:homie/mpower1/port1/relay/set:command:OFF:0],<[mosquitto:homie/mpower1/port1/relay:state:MAP(mpowerrelay.map)]"}
Number energymp "Energy consumption [%d Wh]" { mqtt="<[mosquitto:homie/mpower1/port1/energy:state:default]" }
Number powermp "Current power [%.1f W]" { mqtt="<[mosquitto:homie/mpower1/port1/power:state:default]" }

You need a mpowerrelay.map file:

0=OFF
1=ON
