search for plugin to control Broadlink smart wifi power switch plug by pimatic

---

Hello,

i’am serching for a pimatic plugin-code that allows to connect pimatic with a smart wifi power plug ‘Z10’ which is usally controlled by e-control of Broadlink-App.

It’s easy to setup the broadlink-app to control the power plug via wifi. But this is only working if the smartphone with the running app is logged in the same router as the plug.

Because I have several other applications controlled by pimatic it would be nice to control the wifi plug also by pimatic via my raspberry. There is a similar plugin for the edimax wifi switch. Something like this is needed for my ‘Z10’ wifi smart plug. The wifi smart plug is cheap to buy e.g. at aliexpress (see http://www.aliexpress.com/item/EU-US-UK-AU-Smart-Power-Socket-Remote-Wifi-Plug-Timer-Switch-for-Iphone-Xiaomi-Ios/32627481439.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.63.DgGM1y)

I don’t mean a plugin for the rm-bridge of Broadlink, because that would cause an additional device. It should work directly with the wifi plug, because it has its own IP adress in the router.

Thanks for help of further tips for my investigations.

Rainer, as the app used to setup the plug appears to be the “Wiwo” app (that what is shown on the picture at least) it may work with pimatic-orvibo plugin. https://pimatic.org/plugins/pimatic-orvibo/

The App was called e-control and is from Broadlink. See Appstore from Google for for Android-Phones, but nevertheless I’ll try the plugin you mentioned.

I’ll give feedback in a few days

Thanks in advance
