Action

The provided action is called "sendAVR".

Sensor

The provided sensor class is:

  • AVRSensor

Sensor attributes

Possible attributes are:

  • volume
  • display

Commands

connect

Should only be used for debugging purposes. Creates a socket connection to the avr. Is automatically called on pimatic startup or before sending a data command if necessary.

disconnect

Should only be used for debugging purposes. Ends the connection to the avr, if exist.

sendCommand

Has to be used in the following syntax (value is optional and only usable with "volume.set" at the moment):

[action] "[category].[command].[value]"

Sample: Set volume to -40dB (pioneer)

sendAVR "volume.set.080"

Switch the AVR off

sendAVR "power.off"

Configuration

There are three (self explaining) configuration parameters

  • host
  • port
  • maxVolume
  • brand

Sample Plugin Config:

    {
      "plugin": "pio-remote",
      "host": "192.168.0.15",
      "port": 23,
      "maxVolume": 100,
      "brand": "pioneer" || "denon" (default: pioneer)
    }

The available volume level depends on the AVR brand.
Pioneer: Volume range from 000 (mute) till 185 (+12dB). Concrete value could be calculated by the following formula

dB = 0.5 * volLevel - 80,5

Sample for a limit of -50dB

-50 = 0.5 * volLevel - 80.5
30.5 = 0.5 * volLevel
61 = volLevel

Denon: Volume range from 000 (-80dB) till 098 (+18dB). Concrete value could be calculated by the following formula

dB = volLevel - 80

Sample for a limit of -50dB

-50 = volLevel - 80
30 = volLevel

Sample Sensor Config:

    {
      "class": "AVRSensor",
      "id": "avrsensor",
      "name": "AVR",
      "attributes": [
        {
          "name": "display"
        },
        {
          "name": "vol"
        }
      ],
      "xAttributeOptions": [
        {
          "name": "vol",
          "displaySparkline": false,
          "hidden": false
        }
      ]
    }

Sample Volume Slider config:

Slider

    {
      "class": "DummyDimmer",
      "id": "dummy-dimmer",
      "name": "Slider"
    }

Rule

    {
      "id": "change-vol",
      "name": "change vol",
      "rule": "if $dummy-dimmer.dimlevel changes then sendAvr \"volume.set.$dummy-dimmer.dimlevel\"",
      "active": true,
      "logging": true
    }

Port could be 23 or 8102 depending on the model.

Known devices:

Port 23:

  • Pioneer SC-81
  • Pioneer VSX-921
  • Pioneer VSX-922

Port 8102:

  • Pioneer SC-81
  • Pioneer VSX-42
  • Pioneer VSX-43
  • Pioneer VSX-527
  • Pioneer VSX-528
  • Pioneer VSX-921
  • Pioneer VSX-1020
